Title:
  Kubuntu 10.10-beta2 installation fails if root partition is btrfs

Status in “debian-installer” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Installation of Kubuntu 10.10 beta2 from alternative CD fails during kernel install step when root partition has btrfs. 
  First I found it on my Eee PC 901 laptop, then reproduced this error on VMWare virtual machine.

  Steps to reproduce:
  1. Start installer from Kubuntu alternative CD (kubuntu-11.10-beta2-alternate-i386.iso).
  2. Select language and keyboard layout.
  3. Do not configure network
  4. Select TZ.
  5. Create new partition or select existing, set type to btrfs, mount point to /.
  6. Continue installation.
  7. Error: Unable to locate package linux-headers-generic.

  If root partition is ext4, installation works. I haven't tried using
  btrfs for other partitions. Having network configured doesn't seem to
  help, but I somehow managed to install system once on btrfs, so I'm
  not sure.
