[Bug 1447600] Re: 15.04 installer hangs in partitioner during something else

[Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre]

As Brian mentioned earlier, there isn't enough information to deal with
this bug just yet. Could someone having this run "apport-collect
1447600" or attach /var/log/syslog *from the installer* when this
happens? You can do this by having a terminal open beside ubiquity in
the "Try Ubuntu before install" option of the CD.

We only need one proper log for this, so it's unnecessary for multiple
people to run apport-collect in the installer; but we do need to know
what/why it's stalling, which is something that will show up in the
logs.

Also, while I appreciate that this is an annoying bug, I don't think it
qualifies as "Critical", so I'm reducing it to High.

** Changed in: ubiquity (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Critical => High

Title:
  15.04 installer hangs in partitioner during something else

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  In both Ubuntu and Lubuntu 15.04, when performing a "Something Else"
  install, the installer hangs when trying to format /.

  I was trying a Something Else install on 32 bit.  I asked to format
  sda1 as ext4 and mount at /.  I asked to not format sda3 and mount at
  /home.  I asked to use sda5 as swap.  Installer just stopped with no
  hard drive or CD activity.  No formatting was performed.
