Reopening:
1. Created an unetbootin USB key from the release xubuntu-11.04-desktop-
amd64.iso (md5 verified).
2. Booted the USB and selected Install Xubuntu in boot menu.
3. Chose to install the extra packages and download updates (wifi did
not catch-up, so I plugged ethernet cable and installer detected net
successfully).
4. Repartitioned manually all space as 256MB ext4 /boot + 4GB swap +
304GB btrfs /
5. Created user and chose autologon and no home encryption (using acer
notebook disk lock in bios instead).
The installer crashed at "Checking for packages to remove".
According to syslog:
plugininstall.py: File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/apt/cache.py", line 279, in _fetch_archives
plugininstall.py: LockFailedException: Failed to lock /target/var/cache/apt/archives/lock
Will now retest if it is reproducible, and if apt-get upgrade helps.
Also this bug probably affected Ubuntu 10.10 already, according to imho
duplicate bug
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/743359, and
another report https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/152359.
Btw, what is the bug tag policy? Should I remove i386+kubuntu tags
because the bug is not limited to them, or add amd64+ubuntu+xubuntu tags
because the bug affects them too?
