Public bug reported: I tried two ways: boot up to live session and click install - it shows only two ways to redistribute HDD than it was in previous versions. And shows only sda1 nothing else. In gutsy gibbon i was able to choose simply everything and keep my data safe. i mean i got list of possible partitions and simply chose one for file system and created swap. in 8.04 Beta its not possible..
second way: to install from windows as "application.." i chose which partition then how large i want. then filled in the username and password, then it copied smthg and rebooted, chose ubuntu in windows boot menu and started to boot. then it got stuck on error: there is no partition for file system selected, choose it from partition manager. but i couldnt make this off. I was clicking ok and it still appeared again and again. eventually i tapped ctrl+alt+backspace and it started desktop but still as live session user. looked in partition manager and the only possibilty was one unalocated space 111GB which is my NTFS data partition. nothing else.. so i uninstalled it from windows again.. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- cannot even install the OS 8.04 beta https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/205969 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
