Barny,
I tried installing LM7.2, it didn't work.
I normally put a FAT/NTFS partition first, before I install linux. I delete that particular MS partition with a Disk Druid and make linux partitions. But this time I didn't do it that way. Instead, I just allocated a free partition (no FS yet) and tried to install linux on that free partition. Do you think there is a relation between the 2 methods?
Thanks,
Leo
