Public bug reported:
Hi, I am trying to do installation from hard disk using the method described here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromLinux I have done this several time before with earlier releases. I am using the Live CD (desktop installer) of alpha3 of Jaunty (9.04). I already have an existing partition for the installation so that the installer should just format that partition, without needing to do edit/change any existing partition). I have chosen manual partition option. (My LiveCD image is on another partition on the same hard disk). However, the installation fails saying that it cannot sync the new partition table to the disk because there are programs already using it. I think the problem is that the installer is trying to edit the partition unnecessarily. If a check can be added to execute the partition edit/change/sync only when really needed, this problem would go away. -Niraj ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: install -- installation using hard disk fails if using manual partition https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/323928 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
