Hi everyone!

I tried the hint from a2d2, but with no success. Ubiquity crashed and
was not impressed by reiserfs.

However, I worked around this problem by doing the following: In VMware
(under Win XP), I installed Ubuntu 8.10 x64 in a virtual machine. Then I
copied the initrd.img file to the host, booted into my working Ubuntu
8.04, and copied the initrd.img file to the parition of Ubuntu 8.10.
Then I modified my menu.lst and voilĂ ... Ubuntu 8.10 boots!

If anyone is interested in my initrd.file, I published it here:

http://temp.mkcs.at/linux/initrd.img-2.6.27-7-generic

I guess it should work for all Ubuntu 8.10 x64 installations.
