| Summary | 0007717: Kali 2022.2 Installer can't partition disk. | ||||
| Description | Following the installer instrucions resulted in an error from partman. Apparently, the disk was mounted. To solve the issue, I had to use a shell (CTRL+L_ALT+F2/F3) and manually unmount the device. I have tested it on a single machine, trying guided full disk partitioning, normal/with lvm/with encrypted lvm. The machine is x86_64, and I have tried using the x32 installer/x64 installer/x64 netinstaller/x32 live isos. | ||||
| Additional Information | The attached log is the result from a search for 'partman' in syslog. | ||||

I was unable to reproduce this issue. Can you share the full log please? |

Here it is. I also uploaded partman's log. |
|
|
It didn't seem to upload the files. |

Since I couldn't upload any of the files, I put them on pastebin: syslog: https://pastebin.com/qFKEu0MR partman: https://pastebin.com/dZY9KvR3 |
