Bug#223743: Repartitioning after mounting leads to a lockup state
Package: installation-reports
Severity: normal
Using debian-installer (I downloaded my ISO in November 9, it must have
been released shortly before that), I partitioned, formatted and mounted
my partitions. Then, I decided the partitions were not what I wanted, so
I repartitioned - the installer did not complain. Afterwards, I entered
again the dialog in order to mount the hard drive. I got an error
(sorry, I did not take note of the exact message - If needed, I can
probably reproduce the situation) telling me it was not able to continue
because no root partition was mounted. Hitting 'back' or 'ok' led me to
this same screen - I had to reboot and restart the installation.
