The same here. I have a Dell Inspiron with a 250 gb HD, Intel core 2 duo and 2 Gb of RAM. Visa home premium as OS. I decided to try wubi instead to resize the NTFS partition. System does boot but it freezes on ubuntu progress bar and after some minutes screen becomes black and a series of error messages start to flow down. Error messages are:
ata2.00: exception Emask 0x0 ........ ata2.00: cmd a0/00:00:00:24... ata2.00: status: {DRDY} After a while error messages changes to ata1.00 or ata3.00 There are also other errors like: ata 2.00: revalidation failed (errno=-5) It could be related to the SATA controller ? Is there a way to bypass the problem ? Is there a way to pass some option to the kernel whrough wubi installation or do I need to use grubfordos shell directly ? Is it related to a problem of contiguous-ness of the HD image file ? Can a defrag help ? I'm waiting for some indication.
