Public bug reported:

Attempted 4 times wubi install using Ubuntu 8.04 beta x86_64 extracted
iso. Attempted 1 time wubi install using x86 extracted iso on same
computer.

wubi.exe appears to run fine, reboots and installer appears to run fine
until second reboot. Second reboot shows ubuntu splash screen with
progress bar to completion, but then gdm doesn't start. Screen reverts
to logging console.

Some investigation shows that / is mounted read-only (/dev/loop0) and
lots of I/O errors. Sometimes I got a tty login prompt and sometimes
not, but was never able to login.

Booting in recovery mode sometimes produced a shell and sometimes not,
but in every case / was mounted read-only.

I'm not sure what info to provide, so rather than spend hours hand-
typing the dmesg output or flooding this report with all kinds of
shotgun info that may or may not be useful, I'm seeking feedback on the
type of information that would be useful to developers.
