[Bug 925240] Re: ubiquity Hangs on 12.04 alpha install

[Brian Murray]

At what point in time did you switch to a console and execute tail?  I
tried recreating this using tail -F syslog right after starting the
installer and was able to complete an install successfully, however it
did seem slower.

Incidentally, tail wouldn't show you anything on the console due to a
different bug regarding inotify and overlayfs.  So not seeing anything
in the console is not indicative of the install not working.

Title:
  ubiquity Hangs on 12.04 alpha install

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  On ubuntustudio 12.04 alpha 2 live install ubiquity hangs (visits la-
  la land) Says configuring system but there is no target disk activity.
  This seemed to happen when I switched to a console with control/alt/f4
  to do a tail -F syslog to see what was happening. (being overly
  curious) There did seem to be can't get frame buffer errors during
  this time. I'm not sure if the best solution is to warn again
  accessing consoles or not have them running. However, when I install
  doing nothing else there is no problem.
