[Bug 838161] Re: guided partitoning for entire disk creates empty partitions
No worries. I tried with the image http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu /daily-live/current/oneiric-desktop-i386.iso synchronized with zsync Tue Oct 4 20:40:01 CST 2011 To be sure, I also create a completely new disk for this test. Interestingly, the installer crashed when it was almost done, but I have not had any opportunity to investigate that further. However, I figured the disks had already been partitioned, so I started a live session and ran sfdisk. The result is listed below (Note I installed on /dev/sdb, the second drive): I also attach the definition file for the virtual machine, in case it helps. ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo sfdisk -l Disk /dev/sda: 1958 cylinders, 255 heads, 63 sectors/track Warning: extended partition does not start at a cylinder boundary.

I also just tried with the 64bit version that I downloaded Monday.

I know its a hassle but could you possibly try testing this again with a later CD image? ** Changed in: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/838161 Title: guided partitoning for entire disk creates empty partitions To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/838161/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
