/var/log/partman showed lines up to S35dump, then stopped. Another data point; the Ubuntu 10.10 64-bit graphical installer (normal ISO) appears to be working just fine.
So perhaps installing the 32-bit version on a 64-bit machine is the problem, or perhaps it's specific to the alternate installer. Or perhaps it's the weird partitioning layout of the disk. I should also mention I'm using unetbootin to make the disks, though I'm not sure it matters. Please take this report seriously, as it's from a person who has eight Linux machines, has done kernel development, and is not usually troubled by simple matters that trip up noobs. Let me know if there's anything I can do to diagnose it for you. Also, another oddity; fdisk reports in blocks of 1024 bytes, not 512, and the graphical depiction of the amount of disk allocated to Ubuntu has been wrong in many different ways. Maybe it's something to do with the 250GB laptop drive, or maybe not. -- Partman freezing at 52%, only in Czech version https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/386654 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
