We're waiting around 3 seconds for the creation of the partition(s) https://github.com/svartkanin/archinstall/blob/00b0ae7ba439a5a420095175b3bedd52c569db51/archinstall/lib/disk/device_handler.py#L339, maybe that's not enough...

@hkrutzer would you be able to try out changing this value to maybe 10 seconds and see if that makes a difference?

I actually do suspect that that is the case as the partitions seem to have been created and have a partuuid. We can probably put this into a loop and query it for a bit until we get the uuid back. But would you mind just confirming with the above timeout extension to see if that would solve it

[codefiles]

I actually do suspect that that is the case as the partitions seem to have been created and have a partuuid.

@svartkanin, the output from the lsblk -J -O command run by @hkrutzer after installation shows that the partuuid is null for the root partiton (/dev/nvme0n1p2).

              "parttype": null,
              "parttypename": null,
              "partuuid": null,
              "path": "/dev/nvme0n1p2",

The error message is correct.

archinstall.lib.exceptions.DiskError: Unable to determine new partition uuid: /dev/nvme0n1p2

https://github.com/archlinux/archinstall/blob/32982b880bd4e76b158442e444c001f8ebd8bb06/archinstall/lib/disk/device_handler.py#L344-L347

In contrast, the creation of the boot partition (/dev/nvme0n1p1) looks to have succeeded.

              "parttype": "c12a7328-f81f-11d2-ba4b-00a0c93ec93b",
              "parttypename": "EFI System",

              "path": "/dev/nvme0n1p1",

[svartkanin]

Ahh shoot, I had only looked at the boot one

[svartkanin]

Maybe a partprobe after the partition was added would help, I'll create a PR with some improvements and potentially more debugging info logging

[Torxed]

Maybe a partprobe after the partition was added would help, I'll create a PR with some improvements and potentially more debugging info logging

Keep in mind that patprobe flushes kernel cache of partuuid's, unless pyparted takes that into account it could make the value None again.

This is the reason behind the:

for attempt_nr in retries:
    partprobe()
    sleep(1*attempt_nr)
    get_partuuid()

so that we incrementally sleep longer and longer after each partprobe to dynamically stretch the sleep.

the downside being we waited longer than required.

This approach would be better:

partprobe()
for attempt_nr in retries:
    sleep(1*attempt_nr)
    if get_partuuid():
        break

[Torxed]

@hkrutzer, using the latest version from git, does the problem go away?

[hkrutzer]

Thanks everyone for taking the time to look into this! Unfortunately I had to finish the installation to start using the machine so I finished partitioning manually.. I do have another disk of the same type lying around, but it will take a couple days / weeks before I have time to try that one (I have to stick it in a different computer as the one I just installed is a mini and takes a long time to take apart).

If it does not solve the problem, which steps should I take to debug this further?

[Torxed]

I'm closing this as it should be fixed in the PR above. I'm tagging a new release candidate and release it to [testing]. If the bug still exists after that do ping me.

[qlyoung]

This problem still exists. I hit it today on 2.7.1. What details will help?

Looks like it was caused by this PR: https://github.com/archlinux/archinstall/pull/2212

I think that was the issue because I was able to work around the issue with this patch:

Btw, after that PR, it looks like partprobe is not called anywhere at all (dead code).

[codefiles]

The partprobe() function was left despite being dead code since it is a public function.

Did you use --config to load a configuration file, if so was it from before 2.7.0?

[qlyoung]

Did you use --config to load a configuration file

No

if so was it from before 2.7.0?

~I mentioned this was 2.7.1~ Ah, I think you're asking if I loaded a pre-2.7.0 config file on 2.7.1. No, I have never used archinstall before yesterday, so only 2.7.1 was involved.

I have the same trouble with a Samsung 990 SSD. Frustrating issue on latest installer

I also notice this error on Samsung 980 SSD as well. Very frustrating indeed

[vschwaberow]

And just after trying to install it in a proxmox environment I even encounter it with virtual disks (non-ssd). It is so frustrating.
