Comment 2 for bug 1782379

I have also tried to use a different kernel than what is in the original iso using ubuntu 18.04 and linux mint 19 images. My new kernel is compiled using "make deb-pkg" and installed in cubic root using dpkg -i linux*.deb. This kernel works just fine on my linux mint 19, ubuntu 18 and Arch Linux installs. The packages installs just fine except a warning that can not determine root from fstab file. When I click next after making all of my changes in the chroot it exits chroot enviorment and nothing happens after pressing next button. If I click the back button and choose Create a disk image button and click the next button cubic just hangs and does nothing.
