2016-06-30 15:57:22 Simon Quigley description To reproduce on Lubuntu 16.10 run ubiquity and try to create a btrfs partition during manual partitioning (something else) early in the installer it will pop up an error message saying creation of partion on sda 0,0,0 failed. I tried to create this and a swap partition. ubiquity: Installed: 16.10.2 Candidate: 16.10.2 Version table: *** 16.10.2 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu yakkety/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status Description: Ubuntu Yakkety Yak (development branch) Release: 16.10 I expected the manual partitioning to create a btrfs partition. Instead it failed and the install with ubiquity could not continue. ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.10 Package: ubiquity 16.10.2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.4.0-24.43-generic 4.4.10 Uname: Linux 4.4.0-24-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.1-0ubuntu4 Architecture: amd64 CasperVersion: 1.376 Date: Mon Jun 13 03:03:32 2016 InstallCmdLine: file=/cdrom/preseed/lubuntu.seed boot=casper only-ubiquity initrd=/casper/initrd.lz quiet splash --- LiveMediaBuild: Lubuntu 16.10 "Yakkety Yak" - Alpha amd64 (20160612) ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm-r6 PATH=(custom, no user) XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SourcePackage: ubiquity UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) Problem: You cannot create a BTRFS or XFS partition on the Lubuntu daily desktop image using ubiquity. Expected: You should be able to create a BTRFS or XFS partition during the install of the Lubuntu daily desktop image. How to reproduce: 1. Download, install, and boot a daily Lubuntu desktop image. 2. At the partitioning step, select manual partitioning 3. Create a BTRFS or XFS partition 4. Attempt to continue with the installation and the partition creation fails Workaround: Install the `btrfs-progs` and `xfsprogs` packages to enable support.
