OEM Install from USB fails when system asks for a CD change

[Jeff Lane ]

Binary package hint: casper

After talking to cjwatson earlier, this could either be related to 723357 or could be related to some issues with OEM install that cjwatson is working on. I felt it better to just open a new bug for my issue and let it get assigned approriately.

In any case, I boot the 32bit Installer via USB on a netbook and chose to do an OEM installation. After the installation begins, it reaches a point where it just stops and the console shows a message that says:
#0150% [Working]
%015Media chage: please insert the disk labled 'Ubuntu 11.04 _Natty Narwhal_ - Alpha i386 (20110302)'

And from there it just spins waiting on a CD change I can not make.

I also tried this in parallel in a vbox VM and in the VM the installation was successful and had no issues. So this seems to only occur when installing OEM via USB.

Hrmmm... shouldn't casper have proper apport configs to grab useful data instead of just dependencies.txt? Here's a tarball with logs... hope I got the right ones...

Thanks for your report. This is the same basic problem as bug 727783; marking as a duplicate.
