I also thought that the culprit might be a bad disk but then it shouldn't
boot in the first attempt itself. (Linux boots after the installation
restarts the machine after installation is done.) Still I changed the
partition size, location and checked for bad sectors while formatting the
partition..... same results :(
btw my hdd is a samsung 10 GB drive and it has 1240 cylinders. My root
partition is from 768 to 1023 cylinders. will moving this to the beginning
of the disk make any difference?? Can the location of the partition be
associated in any way with this?
