[Bug 834606] Re: [Dell PowerEdge T710] 'Adib' fails to start Oneiric install 'No root file system is defined'

[Brendan Donegan]

Having tried again, I've discovered that if you press ESC on the error
screen and then select 'Select components to install' from the d-i main
menu then the installation continues succesfully. The initial error may
be down to a problem with our preseed, e.g. it's being forced to use a
particular partition that doesn't exist or something like that.

** Changed in: debian-installer (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid

** Changed in: hw-labs
       Status: New => Confirmed

  [Dell PowerEdge T710] 'Adib' fails to start Oneiric install 'No root
  file system is defined'

Status in Hardware Labs:
  Confirmed
Status in “debian-installer” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  While trying to run Oneiric Alpha3 testing on this system, I came
  across the problem that shortly into the install the installer
  complains:

  'Partition disks'

  No root file system is defined

  Please correct this from the partitioning menu

  See the attached screenshot

  A similar error was not seen when installing with the Natty server
  image.
