full traceback
I should clarify that this traceback comes from a slightly different scenario. In this case I simply had one lvm partition with no raid on the previous install. Have you seen this with GinGin trees? Ok, managed to get a testcase that replicates this with 8.0. It seems to be specific to machines with ide drives, or perhaps a single ide drive. Will try same case with Phoebe shortly. Ok this testcase fails on an ide machine when I try it with 8.0, but passes with Phoebe-beta4 (on the same machine). Seems to be fixed. Since I haven't seen this, would you say it's fixed in gingin or just lying dormant? Since this testcase fails consistently when I run it on 8.0 and has passed with flying colors on Phoebe-beta4, I would say it is probably fixed in the underlying lvm/filesystem tools. BTW, the traceback in one of the later comments isn't really the same bug (but rather bug#77872). Okay, closing out |
