Status in Dell Inspiron Mini with Custom Dell UI: Invalid Status in usb-creator: Invalid Status in “debian-installer” source package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in debian-installer in Ubuntu Jaunty: Fix Released Bug description: I have attempted a USB stick install for an lpia system (Dell Mini9) using the Jaunty lpia alternate install CD following the Manual Procedure detailed here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick#Manual%20Approach I also tried the procedure describe in this forum post: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4404569 In both cases, I used the vmlinuz and initrd.gz files found here: http://ports.ubuntu.com/dists/jaunty/main/installer-lpia/beta/images/hd-media/ When I boot from the USB stick and start the installer, it enters a recursive loop of failing attempts to detect hard drives. Each time it tries, it gets to about 95% and then the progress bar disappears for a few seconds before the detection process starts again.
