Package: debian-installer
Severity: critical
Tags: d-i
Justification: breaks the whole system

Dear Maintainer,

I take debian testing weekly build from
http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/weekly-builds/i386/jigdo-dvd/debian-testing-i386-DVD-1.jigdo,
add preseed to it and install in qemu.
Preseed contains this:

d-i partman-auto/method string regular
d-i partman-auto/choose_recipe select atomic
d-i partman-partitioning/confirm_write_new_label boolean true
d-i partman/confirm_nooverwrite boolean true
d-i partman/choose_partition select finish
d-i partman/confirm boolean true

Qemu image is created as:

qemu-img create -f qcow2 newcd-qemu.qcow2 10G

Previous debian testing builds caused no problem with the same setup (I test each week).

Problem arised with latest debian testing build (from 02.03.2015).

Installation freezes with the following error ("Partition disks" stage):

The attempt to mount a files system with type ext4 in SCSI1 (0,0,0), partition #1 (sda) at / failed.

You may resume partitioning from the partitioning menu.
Do you want to resume partitioning?
- No
- Yes

Hello everybody,

the D-I Jessie RC2 release (based on the 20150324 release of the
debian-installer package) makes this issue moot, so closing this bug
report; also letting downstream bug report & Vagrant now about it.

Mraw,
KiBi.
