[Bug 1161771] Re: Corrupted filenames in ISO Ubuntu 12.04.2 Server amd64

[Nicholas Skaggs]

Ivan, thank you for your report. Can you confirm where you obtained the iso from? Was it this iso?
http://releases.ubuntu.com/12.04.2/ubuntu-12.04.2-server-amd64.iso

Looking at the iso in question,
http://releases.ubuntu.com/12.04.2/ubuntu-12.04.2-server-amd64.list,
those files are not corrupt. It sounds like an issue with your
'universal usb installer' tool. If you want to make a usb image of the
iso, I'd recommend using dd:

dd if=/path/to/ubuntu-12.04.2-server-amd64.iso of=/path/to/usb

Title:
  Corrupted filenames in ISO Ubuntu 12.04.2 Server amd64

Status in “debian-installer” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  ISO file "ubuntu-12.04.2-server-amd64.iso" contains some files (about
  19) with corrupt filename and extension (or only extension). Mainly
  they are in this path "/pool/main/l/linux-lts-quantal" but probably I
  saw one in other place.

  For example, a few of corrupted files:
  1) fs-core-modules-3.5.0-23-generic-di_3.5.0-23.35~precise1_amd6.ude (there should be "4" in the end of filename)
  2) multipath-modules-3.5.0-23-generic-di_3.5.0-23.35~precise1_am.ude (there should be "d64" in the end of filename)
  3) floppy-modules-3.5.0-23-generic-di_3.5.0-23.35~precise1_amd64.ude (there wrong only extension)

  So, extension should be "udeb" instead of "ude" and filename should
  end with "precise1_amd64" and not with something else.

  I discovered this problem today when was trying to install Ubuntu Server from USB stick (prepared with Universal USB Installer).
  Installer hangs with the error "Failed to copy file from CD-ROM".

  I downloaded "ubuntu-12.04.2-server-amd64.iso" from ubuntu.com. And my
  MD5 is "af5f788aee1b32c4b2634734309cc9e9" and SHA-1 is
  "983cfa31d1a376e0c6d2e431af7e0e5757f8d28a".

  After renaming corrupt files istallation was successfully completed.

  P. S. I spend near 2 hours to report this bug, first time after
  sending bug was not created, then I fought with "clever" redirection
  from this link "https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+filebug/". It was
  really hard to person who want to do something usefull...
