I had the same problems that others described. The last thing I tried worked.
As I made two changes, you pick the reason:
1. I put wubi.exe in c:\install Ubuntu
2. By accident I left the disk name instead of my choice.
There were lots of errors, but I continued on and rebooted, also with

Title:
Wubi - No root file system is
I am installing 10.10 Desktop Amd64 on new machine bases on Nvidia
chipset Mb Asus M3N78-EM with only one clean bard new disk Sata 320 Gb
not in Raid mode connected in firs port Sata1. During installation I
verified same error as others.
I tried to generate partitions with Gparted with boot flag
Installing Wubi on some raid setups seem to work fine. Others not. This is not
likely a Wubi issue - maybe Ubiquity?
In some cases, there is raid metadata present even if there is no raid in use.
This also seems to confuse things.
Another issue can be the mixture of GPT and MBR partition table
I think the main issue is that some of you are installing wubi on a RAID
Array which is what I have so I decided to install on an external HDD
through wubi and it worked.

I saw this error when trying to install Linux on my Windows 7 machine.
Eventually I solved it.
My issue was that at some point the partition table had become corrupted
- or mislabeled. The disk was labeled gpt but seemed to be actually
using a standard mbr type layout. The tools fdisk,
same goes for me too.
i have windows xp installed on a 80 GB HDD that has two partitions C:\

Bugs,
Hi folks,
I'm experiencing the same issue as well. After installing Windows 7
Professional x64, then attempting to install Wubi, the same issue
occurs. The boot menu appears, I'd select Ubuntu from the list, the
GUI would load, then a few setup dialogs would pop up (curiously at
271%), followed
After downloading the latest version of Wubi for 10.10 and the latest
32-bit Ubuntu desktop release (10.10), I can verify that this issue
still occurs. The above report refers to 10.04, but the behavior has not
changed in the new release.

Wubi - No root file system is defined error
for me also it's throwing the same error.
No root file system is defined.
Please correct this from the partitioning menu.
How to create partition. or where is the partition menu.
I am using ubuntu 10.04 and windows vista. Would anyone give some idea
on this.

I have the same problem here, and like Stefano Bragaglia i think that this
