Bug Description
QA-test install to
- hp dc7700 (c2d-e6320, 5gb, nvidia quadro nvs 290)
testcase: install with existing partition, sda1
I had a calamares failure whilst DITHERING on installer in focal.3 daily install earlier; so I'll attempt to repeat my DITHERING here and see if calamares will crash here too... ie. exploration of http://
ie. before get to "manual partitioning" I'll select REPLACE PARTITION, then select sda1, sda2, sda1, sda2, etc.
I didn't have it crash, so switched it to "MANUAL PARTITIONING, changed my mind & back to "REPLACE PARTITION and back to selecting sda1, sda2, sda1 etc again & keep changing my mind... (this switch to manual & back to replace partition may have been done twice)
On final switch to MANUAL PARTITION calamares window just closes.
Installed was started from menu (what I'm using today, did in focal.3 too)
This issue is of minor importance... if the OP does not dither so much, it won't occur...
(prior focal bug will be linked to this one)
