Comment(by kalxas):

 Hi,

 All the iso testing I did (including the final build) was based on the
 mini iso, which I can confirm that works ok during installation.

 Alex, can you please create a "OSGeoLive6.0.1" Milestone in Trac to
 assign?

 Thanks,
 Angelos

 > I can reproduce this with the 6.0 full iso, trying to install to a VM
 image drive with kvm/qemu. Also if I press the any key at bootup and
 select "Install Xubuntu" from the old boot menu, it just ignores that and
 boots up as the regular user.

 perhaps our last minute neutering of ubiquity caused some collateral
 damage? And yet Alex was able to create a VM from an iso, right? Was the
 mini used for that? If so, maybe it was the remastering of the full iso
 which caused the trouble? The error message in the above ML post (& I get
 the same one) had something to do about reading the filesystem size.

 the change to /etc/init/ubiquity.conf while booted in the iso. But before
 trying that I'll try installing from a final mini.iso.
