Public bug reported:
I'm using the Hardy Alpha-6 Alternate CD to try to install a simple
Software RAID mirror, same as I've done several times before in Ubuntu
7.04, 7.10 (as well as OpenSuSE 10.3). I create the 'physical disk for
raid' partitions but then when I select 'Setup Software RAID' it gives
the following error:
Failed to remove conflicting files
The installer needs to remove operating system files from the install target,
but was unable to do so.
FYI - These are two known-good freshly-wiped hard drives.
If this really is a bug in the scripts it should be easy to recreate. I
tried to create a 30 GB 'md0' with ext3, bootable, mounted as "/", and
also a 10 GB 'md1' swap (I know, it's overkill).
P.S. I know that 7.04 and 7.10 both have problems with their GRUB
scripts which prevents one from booting from only 1 disk in a mirror,
and I'm hoping to do a fresh install of my main machine after Hardy is
released. But this depends on Hardy having working GRUB scripts, which
is what I was trying to test. I didn't expect to get stuck at the
install...
