[Bug 1244694] Re: Creating snapshot fails due to nonexistent temporary directory

[Dirk Grunwald]

In my previous comment, I mentioned that this was a Havana install -
that's incorrect. It's grizzley from Ubuntu 13.10.

Daniel Speichert (dasp), did you check the contents of the snapshot that
you were able to make when the system was shut off? I too was able to
make a snapshot, but I had modified /etc/apt/sources.list prior to
sync'ing and shutting the virtualized system. When I booted up the
original server image, the changes to /etc/apt/sources.list were still
in the virtualized system. But, when I shut it down, took a snapshot and
booted from the snapshot, the contents had reverted to the original
contents of /etc/apt/sources.list -- i.e. it appeared that the snapshot
was using the underlying volume and not the modifications to the booted
image.

I have no idea why this occurs, but wanted to see if you had a similar
experience with your setup?
