<pre wrap="">Trying to install to sdcard - it sees the free space - allows me to

Then the install fails after trying to unmount /cdrom
As far as mount is concerned the image is mounted on /cdrom
Not sure how to proceed with this.

<pre wrap="">Hi Elfy,
Unfortunately there is no hard data on the bug to allow me to say
anything:
* we do not have any of the logs for the install (syslog, partman,
Ubiquity debug;
* we do not know what Ubuntu version you were trying;
* we do not know the Ubiquity version.
You could try to run 'ubuntu-bug ubiquity' on the failing ARM install,
and open a bug with the results; alternatively, you can repeat the
install, and run 'apport-collect 1036742', which would collect this
basic info.
Cheers,
..C..

If it is impossible to actually install to the sdcard that
the install medium is on then that's fine - need to know
one way or the other though.<br>
<br>
If nothing else the wiki will need editing to reflect
that.<br>

Unsurprisingly - it's a duplicate - unfixed.<br>
<br>
Seems that if you start the install rolling and then change
to a tty and <br>
<br>
sudo umount -l -r -f /cdrom<br>
<br>
and ignore any messages you then get it installs :)<br>
<br>
Possibly need to add that to the wiki for people not
installing to USB<br>

Elfy, are you prepping your sd in advance with a target
partition to install on, before attempting installation? As
mentioned, you can't on-the-fly resize your currently running
filesystem :-)<br>

Yep - still needed to sudo umount -l -r -f /cdrom to let it
carry on. <br>

Ok, I will try an sd based install this week and see how it goes.
Feel free to add your notes about installing via sd to the wiki --
especially if we can confirm this.<br>

I'll wait for confirmation :)<br>

Happy to edit wiki though :)<br>
