Title:
  netboot stopped at “Creating ext3 file system for /”

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I always use the method from https://sfxpt.wordpress.com/2013/06/09
  /get-the-debianubuntu-ready-and-customized-the-way-you-like-
  in-10-minutes/ to do automatic Ubuntu net installation. It works all
  the way from 2012-04 to 2014-04, but not 2014-10 -- the netboot
  stopped at “Creating ext3 file system for /” and did not go any
  further.

  My net install environment is Virtualbox. For  2014-10, I tried three
  times, and the last time is right after a fresh PC reboot, with
  nothing else running.

  Once again, the automatic net install method is from
  https://sfxpt.wordpress.com/2013/06/09/get-the-debianubuntu-ready-and-
  customized-the-way-you-like-in-10-minutes/, it's always been the same.
  Here is the disk related part:

  d-i partman-auto/purge_lvm_from_device  boolean true

  # Using the default partitioning scheme and wiping any existing
  partitions.

  d-i partman-auto/disk   string /dev/sda
  d-i partman-auto/method string regular
  # - regular: use the usual partition types for your architecture
  # - lvm:     use LVM to partition the disk
  # - crypto:  use LVM within an encrypted partition
  d-i partman-auto/choose_recipe select atomic
  # - atomic: all files in one partition
  # - home:   separate /home partition
  # - multi:  separate /home, /usr, /var, and /tmp partitions
  d-i partman/default_filesystem  string ext3

  # This makes partman automatically partition without confirmation.
  d-i partman/choose_partition    select finish
  d-i partman/confirm_write_new_label     boolean true
  d-i partman/confirm_nooverwrite boolean true
  d-i partman/confirm     boolean true

  ## how partitions are mounted
  # The default is to mount by UUID, but you can also choose "traditional" to
  # use traditional device names, or "label" to try filesystem labels before
  # falling back to UUIDs.
  d-i partman/mount_style select  traditional
  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Please investigate.
