Public bug reported:
Hi
As I'm new to Linux, I have tried to install Ubuntu many times, but every time
I have faced with a new error message or a misbehaviour.
Last time that I tried, everything went well, OS was installed, but after
reboot when the bootable-usb was mounted, it took me to the installation page
(Try Ubuntu, Install Ubuntu, OEM installation & disk check-up) AND when usb was
unmounted, it took me to a black screen, seems a command page with no title and
no ability to type down anything, though there was a cursor blinking.
This attempt I have made new partiotions, a root "/" , swap area and home
"/home" and have chosen to install bootloader on its default value (my disk
name indeed). And during installation I have faced with "GRUB installation
failed" message that took me to this page to write it in forum.
I'd appreciate any help as I have few information around Linux. I'd ask
you to provide me information about which partitions I need to make
during installation and how much of space each (previously it was 8GB
swap, 80GB root and the rest as home).
To be noted, I have had Win. 10 installed on drive C, and had two other
drives as data which I want to be conserved, so I have tried all these
by formatting drive C in partition stage of Ubuntu installation. That's
because on windows I had disk problems which made me to install new OS.
Thanks for your help
