Errors with liveCD file system

[anonym]

Installing with the Live CD installer (Dapper, Flight 6) results in the (apparent) creation of TWO filesystems; one is named "Filesystem" and the other is named "File System." Only one of the two ("File System") is usable; the other gives an error when accessed via Nautalis.

Only one File System should be created. If there is a desire to keep changes to the Live CD filesystem after installing, it should modify the main filesystem only.

The user should be given an option to install a clean system as well, without taking into account the current status of the LiveCD session.

Clearing source and binary package because this can't be related to the boost library...

confirmed...

This is a very old bug, and I'm not sure I recall seeing it myself; at any rate I haven't seen it lately. Can you still reproduce this with Feisty?

[Colin Watson (cjwatson)]

Note that the installer only ever installs a clean system. A few things are selectively copied over from the live session for internal installer purposes, but that's all.

I'm going to go ahead and close this as no one seems to have reproduced it since Dapper. Feel free to re-open if you can reproduce this with the Hardy Beta LiveCD. Thanks.
