I seem to be having the same problem with the Hardy beta (+) live- install CD. I can free up the system by unmounting all (or some) of the partitions left mounted by os-prober and migration-assistant. When I run with --debug the problem doesn't occur. I suspected the mounts as multiple devices were left mounted on the same mount points. I have a hunch that a race condition is involved somehow, but I don't know that.
The system doesn't hang if I specify --no-migration-assistant, run with --debug,don't mark a windows partion at hda6 as don't use, or mount all partitions to appropriate different /media/hdxx mount points before hand. I tried this last idea realizing that running ubiquity under an installed gutsy system wasn't hanging and the mounts remaining after running it weren't as funky. migration-assistant leaves out partitions in its survey of users available for migration. Which ones it leaves out and leaves in are difficult to predict. Sometimes it says none are available and sometimes it lists most (from 1 ntfs partition (hda1) and 4 ext3 partitions (hda5, hdb2/6, hdb7/8, hdb9). Rarely are all partitions represented. The last userid of hdb9 is often left out, but that may be a different problem. As ubiquity is running gnome file explorers pointing to partitions start up on their own, I suspect as partitions are mounted by ubiquity components. I can get around all of this. I'm submitting this report to provide feedback on Hardy beta. Please advise if I can do anything helpful. -- Gutsy beta - Desktop CD install hangs on migration screen https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/145712 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
