[Bug 1571564] Re: Unable to install Kubuntu 16.04

[Philip Muškovac]

So, I retested the final images (20160420.1) in both Virtualbox and on
my nvidia optimus notebook.

The virtualbox session crashes the install/live session screen (known
issue) and threw me into a fully functional plasma session. While
kubuntu-desktop is indeed not installed, the installation itself worked
fine, and after resetting the system I had no problems booting it.

On my notebook (on the intel GPU), the live session experience was
exactly the same, but I did no install test.

It would be great if someone with such a failed system could try to get
a wired network connection, and run 'ubuntu-bug ubiquity' from there and
open the bug reporting URL from another system (or write it down).

If switching to a TTY doesn't work, The recovery mode from the GRUB
"Advanced options from ubuntu" section has an option to drop you to a
root shell. That should gather enough logs to tell us why plasma-desktop
etc. was missing.

If you still cannot file a bug with apport with that, try to at least
get the logs from /var/log/installer and /var/log/apt - that can even be
done from a Kubuntu 15.10 live session

** Changed in: ubiquity (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Incomplete
