[Bug 1080464] [NEW] [Errno 30] Read-only file system:'/target/boot/vmlinuz-3.5.0-17-generic

[cristina]

Public bug reported:

Ubuntu installer repeatedly crashes when trying to copy the kernel
image. The exact error message is:

The installer encountered an error copying files to the hard disk:

[Errno 30] Read-only file system:'/target/boot/vmlinuz-3.5.0-17-generic

This is often due to a faulty hard disk. It may help to check whether
the hard disk is old and in need of replacement, or to move the system
to a cooler environment.

I tried shrinking the root partition in case some part of the disk was
faulty, but so far that didn't help.
