2012-12-10 16:56:58 Robie Basak description I just installed Ubuntu 12.10 on a pandaboard. At the installation, I selected an empty partition named "ubuntu2" et checked the box for formating. After the installation process, at the first boot, rootfs couldn't be mounted : the bootarg was "root=UUID=ubuntu2" So I changed the preEnv.txt on my computer to "root=LABEL=ubuntu2" but sill couldn't boot, as the label was erased during format process. I fixed it thanks to busybox by putting back label "ubuntu2" to my /dev/sda2 partition. [Impact] Installation fails on a Pandaboard on Quantal for users who previously had a volume label on an existing partition. [Test Case] Create and label an existing partition (eg. using e2label). Then run the installer. On first reboot, if the bug still exists, the system will fail to mount the root filesystem. [Regression Potential] We're changing calls to blkid only by being specific that we want the UUID instead of assuming that the UUID is on the first line. This has been tested in d-i on Quantal. I can only see this regression if blkid doesn't work as expected in this specific mode in some obscure case that we haven't considered.
