Just hit the same bug. Computer has 3 drives, 150Gb, 1.5 Tb, and 500 Gb. I was installing to the 150Gb drive (where windows resides) which was /dev/sdc I believe. Windows partition was 140 gigs. I was going to try to squeeze the Ubuntu distro into the last 10 gigs, which I thought would be ok s

Hi all I was looking for a Linux distro which enabled wireless connect with my desktop and tried Ubuntu 8.10 running under Windows. All worked fine until I tried a stand-alone install. All installed well, until I rebooted my pc. There was no mention of Ubuntu ... no sign ... totally disappeared.

Hello Everybody, I've got a similar problem with ubuntu 8.10 when installing the server version on a HP Proliant ML580 G5 machine. The installation goes fine up to the end, but when it reboots, than the machine won't start. I couldn't fix the bootloader with SuperGrubDisk. Any hints? Thank you,

My recollection is getting a little fuzzy at this point as there have been so many install attempts on this hardware, but if I recall correctly, my first attempt was onto a single SCSI drive (the same Mylex controller), and I let the installer do the default partitioning ( / takes everything but a

Resolution (workaround?) Follow-up to my previous post. Here's what I did to get it working: I suspected the problem may have been that I used the Partition Editor on the Live CD to resize my /home partition prior to Ubuntu 8.10 installation. Specifically, before I installed Ubuntu 8.10, I did th

Ah, yes, let me clarify: when I ran the alternate install, I got the red window.

Ditto with FlorentI never saw any "skip" button either. After the installer installed a _large_ bunch of packages, it displayed a big red window that stated it was unable to install the boot loader. I was never able to get past that window except by telling it to continue without the boot load

This occurred on a freshly-downloaded 64-bit iso, alternate install. It also occurred on a hardy install, alternate, 64-bit. In this case (since I pursued the install to viability), I can verify that the grub package was _not_installed. Perhaps my hardware is just too unusual... Motherboard: Bios
