[Bug 1419372] Re: After install completes, Xubuntu 14.04.2 hangs on reboot

[Richard Elkins]

I was determined to get the whole contents of /var/log using Ctrl-Alt-F1
when I reproduced a hang the second time.  Strangely enough, the reboot-
hang did not happen the 2nd time.  So, I backed off and tried a 3rd time
and the reboot proceeded as expected.

All 3 times, I used the same preexisting Linux Mint 17.1 (Rebecca)
installed partition and swap partition as a starting point and the exact
same thumb drive contents of Xubuntu 14.04.2.

Note that this consumed a lot of time but it is worth it from my own
experience as a recipient of bug reports.

In the interest of everyone's time, I'll close this as unreproducible.
If Daniel Mehrman can reproduce his observations consistently, I suggest
that he reopen this bug report or create a new one.

Title:
  After install completes, Xubuntu 14.04.2 hangs on reboot

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Started with a Linux Mint 17.1 (Rebecca) system such that 4GB is
  reserved for swap and Mint occupied 23GB, leaving 24GB available for
  Xubuntu.  I booted into the thumb drive desktop.  I successfully
  installed Xubuntu 14.04.2 from the ICON on the desktop.

  When I went to reboot, Xubuntu hung.  During the hand, I was able to
  Ctrl-Alt-F1 and attempt a reboot there.  This resulted in a report of
  "I/O error".

  Attached you should find a compressed tar archive of some logs,
  including the /var/log/installer directory.
