[Bug 1626622] Re: yakkety server: fails to detect and mount CD-ROM

[Brian Murray]

Bug 778319 is about a similar (if no the same) issue.  Could you try the
workaround described in comment #7?

"Solution (that needs manual intervention) that works for me
# ALT+F2 to go to the shell, umount /media && mount /dev/sdb /cdrom
(supposing that the flash drive is /dev/sdb)"

** Also affects: debian-installer (Ubuntu Yakkety)

Title:
  yakkety server: fails to detect and mount CD-ROM

Bug description:
  The latest yakkety server amd64 daily (20160921.1, sha1sum
  b3e9f59397389bf23390f4869d3aef46de5d105c) fails to detect and mount
  the CD-ROM.

  Please see attached screenshot.

  I confirmed that this is happening on physical hardware when booting
  the server installer from a USB stick (I tested in both UEFI and BIOS
  mode, both fail).

  This also happens under QEMU in BIOS mode. I can't test under QEMU in
  UEFI mode because of lp:1624096

  Thanks!
