Hi Gene I have had huge issues with the 12.xx install, it almost prevented my doing any testing for John of the Xenomai builds, until I worked around it.
In addition to network resolution issues, the installer has real problems with many HDD setups. This is quite well documented in help forums for Ubuntu. If it does not find just a single HDD with maybe Windoze and an older Linux install, it can blow a fuse. My machine has 3.5TB of space over 4 HDDs and approx 35 logical partitions, so it just sat at the 'Preparing to Install' graphic and hung I found that on the Ubuntu site there is an mini(mal).iso for 12.xx, which is similar to the Debian net install .iso It just contains the bare bones to get going and downloads the rest. As far as I can tell it IS the debian ncurses based installer and it just works. It resolved my partitions and network in no time at all and installed first time (12.11) The only thing it did not like was my telling it not to install a boot loader, but this was so near the end of the process, I just Ctrl Alt Del out of it to finish it. (The 12.11 system works fine with the Xenomai debs, you are installing a new kernel onto it in any case.)
