Sounds like he saw something similar to what I mentioned in an earlier post.
But, the Ubuntu CD I received with mine was an official Ubuntu CD. I didn't pursue why it wouldn't re-format the FAT partition that Dell had used. I just used Gparted live to reformat and then reloaded Ubuntu.

My brother purchased a dell ubuntu laptop but ubuntustudio did not install on it off the mirror iso images. He actually was unable to easily install ubuntustudio and runs the dell version of ubuntu on it, having become too frustrated.
