I tried to reproduce Jerry's problem testing Kubuntu i386 20070415 on the same hardware I described previously. I was unable to do so. Here's what I did: The disk already had an existing install of Kubuntu feisty on it using the whole of /dev/sda1. Simpler than Jerry's set up but still something on there. Selected manual partitioning. Click on sda1, edit partition Set partition size to 9.6GB (on a 20GB drive) sda1 was correctly resized
Clicked on the newly created free space. Clicked New partition /dev/sda3, created as a primary partition. Set mount point as / Set sda3 to be reformatted but sda1 to be left alone Proceeded with installation on sda3. All of this went without a hitch. Both installs now boot and run just fine. I can supply logs if required but there doesn't seem to be anything useful in them. I will try and test this further tomorrow. Maybe try and create a more realistic test case -- The ext3 file system creation in partition #1 of SCSI1 (0,0,0) (sda) failed. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/99908 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
