OK now I've installed the release version several times. http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.10/ubuntu-9.10-netbook-remix-i386.iso ...except of course I used the torrent link. ;-)
The first time I installed the release version I saw errors running fsck on the new root partition. There were broken applets and such, too, corroborating the brokenness. SO this time I killed the installer after it was through formatting the root partition. I booted again from the install image, and ran fsck and it showed clean (on the mostly empty file system). SO I restarted the installation and let it complete, and ran fsck before the first boot -- it was clean. Then I ran fsck again after the first boot and it is still completely clean. So now this has gone from being completely reproduce-able to mostly NOT reproduce-able. I may try one more install (letting it go through the entire process completely uninterrupted) but apparently some tweak to the code has made this much better.... I cannot explain the first bad install... -- beta installer left ASUS EeePC 900 unbootable https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/430333 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
