Bug Description
A series of QA-test installs were made on
- hp dc7700 (c2d-e6320, 5gb, nvidia quadro nvs 290)
in exploration of https:/
The install was left to run overnight; journalctl starts at 07:11 and is not at 23:30 with ubiquity install still running (no progress).
** background on system
dc7700 started with 2 lubuntu impish installs
(1) one was replaced with ubuntu impish; http://
(2) the issue I was exploring had three installs; so I performed a auto-resize (http://
(3) this install; I attempted to replace partition, alas did NOT use FORMAT (which would have been quicker) but it should still have worked.. HERE THE INSTALL THAT JUST LOOPED
** Expected result
Install completes; I reboot & find a lubuntu & 2x ubuntu impish installs; one with changes and one clean (no history, screens wrongly positioned).
(normally for this install I add a package or two to see they get re-installed; but didn't do that; I was trying to explore replace)
** Actual result
It's still just sitting there, no feedback and been running for 15+ hours..
** Comments
I've been unable to see issue, only
[24519.919619] sda: sda1 sda2 sda3 sda4 < sda5 >
types of messages are filling the logs..
Given this exploration as looking at https:/
Either way - I don't think this is a fixable issue; maybe a quirk in this box which is getting rather old..
I wonder though if they are related; but still don't think a Ubuntu concern, unless the issue is confirmed on a different box !
** filing this report
Attempts to file this bug with `ubuntu-bug ubiquity` just result in 502 errors... the gathering of info takes a LONG time and I think this causes timeouts... so it was filed online & then apport-collect executed (twice as first time just hung... it's still the same session).
