2008-09-11 08:40:11 Agostino Russo title Intrepid: Wubi fails to mount sda1 Intrepid: it is not possible to mount ntfs partitions from the initrd
2008-09-11 08:47:11 Agostino Russo description RELEASE: Intrepid CD/DVD VARIANT: Wubi-8.10-rev507.exe ISO BUILD: 20080909 SYMPTOMS: Wubi downloads the files correctly starts the reboot process and upon reboot displays ubuntu correctly. However once started it initialises the kernel and drops into initramfs. CAUSE: Fails to mount sda1 STEPS TO REPRODUCE: 1/ download the latest version of Wubi and install 2/ See it drop into initramfs upon reboot. RELEASE: Intrepid CD/DVD VARIANT: Wubi-8.10-rev507.exe ISO BUILD: 20080909 SYMPTOMS: Wubi downloads the files correctly starts the reboot process and upon reboot displays ubuntu correctly. However once started it initialises the kernel and drops into initramfs. CAUSE: Fails to mount sda1 EDIT (ago): The issue is more generic, ntfs partitions cannot be mounted from any 2.6.27 initrd To reproduce, boot with break=mount and try to mount manually an ntfs partition (also in vm)
