gemaxnox: we are stuck , cannot install with utah in HW because of bug 109694315:18
ubot2Launchpad bug 1096943 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) "Ubiquity freezes during nfs-based desktop install from recent live destkop images on physical hardware" [High,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/109694315:18
gemaxnox: bootspeed testing and power measurements are not able to run due to that15:18
gemaxnox: are you the right person to contact on this, or shall I be talking to someone else?15:19
gemaxnox: it started failing around 20th of December, really bad timing15:19
gemaxnox: after the holidays we've been trying to determine whether it was any of the already raised bugs15:19
ogra_the last ubiquity upload was on dec. 5th15:19
gemaogra_: that's interesting, then it may not be in ubiquity15:20
gemaany alternatives ideas welcome15:20
jibelgema, did you try with rc6 disabled as I suggested this morning, I found problems with i915 on MSI boards15:23
ogra_there was a partman-base upload on the 20th15:26
ogra_thats the only ubiquity related bit i see15:27
gemaogra_: that may be it, since it is failing when there is something already installed there15:27
nuclearbobogra_: that'a also the day I started seeing the problem15:27
ogra_https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/raring/+source/partman-base/162ubuntu115:28
ogra_... "issue a warning that partitioning may be difficult" ...15:29
ogra_you might need to preseed that15:29
gemanuclearbob: may that be it?15:30
ogra_even if it isnt, it would stall your installation waiting for confirmation15:30
nuclearbobogra_ would a failure to preseed that cause the machine to become unresponsive during the install?15:31
ogra_no, i wouldnt think so15:31
ogra_for unresponsiveness i would rather take a look at the kernel or nfs support15:31
nuclearbobogra_ would it help to have access to the machine?15:32
ogra_no, but do you have any more data loke a log or so you could attach tp the bug ?15:32
ogra_*to15:32
ogra_*like15:32
ogra_sigh !15:32
* ogra_ needs a typing course15:32
nuclearbobogra_ sure, I can reach the machine over ssh, so I can grab whatever logs you think would be useful15:32
ogra_syslog and everything in /var/log/installer and /var/log/ubiquity15:33
cjwatsonpartman-base uploads only affect anything after a ubiquity upload that incorporates them15:36
cjwatsonif there wasn't a ubiquity upload, it's impossible for the partman-base upload to be responsible for this15:36
ogra_oh, indeed15:36
ogra_and i suspect it wont take nfs mounts into account for this function anyway15:37
xnoxand currently ubiquity is 'out-of-date', I wanted to upload ubiquity this week there are a few fixes in it already and they get rereported.15:37
ogra_there was a kernel upload on the 15th ...15:38
ogra_https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/raring/+source/linux/3.7.0-7.1515:39
ogra_though if there was an issue with that it would likely have hit you on the 16th already15:39
ogra_so the log at https://launchpadlibrarian.net/127826144/UbiquityDebug.txt seems to indicate that ubiquity got through to the point where it actually issues a reboot15:47
ogra_and the syslog from the bug shows some hung task messages from Xorg15:47
ogra_i strongly doubt it is installer related at all15:48
ogra_rather kernel or network stack (rootfs messed up etc) or even Xorg itself15:48
ogra_nuclearbob, bug 1097197 smells related16:02
ubot2Launchpad bug 1097197 in linux (Ubuntu) "Raring daily failed to boot on MSI MS-7676/Z68MA-ED55 / Intel i915 and RC6 enabled" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/109719716:02
ogra_(as jibel apparently said above)16:02
nuclearbobogra_ I've installed in a newer images than that, buit it could still be related16:03
nuclearbobogra_ up to about 2012 12 20, things seem pretty okay for the main system I'm using16:03
ogra_yeah, admittedly it is an older issue16:04
nuclearbobogra_ I'm going to try the boot option jibel mentioned for that16:05
ogra_++16:05
