Public bug reported: Using Ububtu 8.04.1 (Hardy) I experienced a problem while installing the system om my notebook FS Lifebook S7020. During the installation wizard the partitioner starts and it presents an option to automatically set the partitions. When I chose this option and complete the 7 steps of the wizard the installer loops back to the partitioner stage after accepting the last step (where it should start the actual installation).
I worked around this issue by starting the live system in which I manually partitioned the drive. I started the installation again and only created the mount points in the already partitioned drive. Installation then completed without a problem. Problems also arose using the alternative installer and the Kububtu versions. Although in these cases the installation crashed somewhere in the middle of the installation. First I thought this to be a hardware issue, but I ran the complete hardware test program of FS and let Ubuntu do the memory and CD-Rom tests. No errors were found. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Hardy install on FS Lifebook S7020 fails - loops back to partitioner step https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/255653 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
