[Bug 930676] Re: Ubiquity quits when starting migration-assistent

[Pjotr12345]

The sda4 partition with PC-BSD on it, has a UFS file system. Linux can't
cope with UFS, so that's probably the reason why migration-assistant
stumbles and crashes (and takes Ubiquity down as well).

A fix would probably have to make migration-assistant simply *ignore and
skip* file systems that it can't recognize, when it starts scanning the
hard drive.

P.S. Please disregard my remark about the boot screen of the CD; I
overlooked your answer to that particular issue.

Title:
  Ubiquity quits when starting migration-assistent

Status in “migration-assistant” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When installing Ubuntu 12.04 Precise Pangolin (or 11.10 Oneiric
  Ocelot) with the Desktop CD, installation is aborted when starting
  migration-assistant.

  This may have something to do with EFI, because the Ubuntu Desktop CD
  fails to show a normal boot screen as well (just a very basic option
  screen). The only way that I can succesfully complete an install, is
  by means of the Alternate CD.

  I have attached a tarball with the following files:
  - syslog
  - hardware list
  - screenshots
