Jamie, where does it stall for you, if not during the erase stage? My tests have all been on a Core 2 Duo T7500 and I haven't been able to reproduce the problem at all despite several test installations using alternate install CDs.
Is this specific to the server kernel? ** Summary changed: - When selecting LVM Crypt, erase never ends + Installation stalls randomly until a key is pressed ** Description changed: - LATEST BUILD TESTED: - 20080416 - - Using Hardy Server 64bit - - Select Guided partioning LVM Crypt - - Erasing the partition never ends (stuck at 27%) and there no more disk activity (waited 10 minutes) - - One can press cancel and the installation continues... - - Test done under KVM (if it has an impact) + There are several reports, both in KVM and on real hardware, of a + problem where the installation process will stall, and no further + progress is made until a key is pressed. This is believed to be a + kernel issue, which is resolved by initiating some interrupt processing + activity. -- Installation stalls randomly until a key is pressed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/217815 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is a direct subscriber. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
