chris,

Since you didn't attach any log files, we're going to have a rough time
debugging your problem.  Sorry!

If you can reproduce it again, please feel free to comment in this bug and
attach the appropriate logs.

Thanks!

BTW, since this makes Windows inaccessible it could do with being
fixed...

2006-07-31 Thread Matt Blissett
In case that's the cause, I'll add I had Linux installed on what was to
become / (/dev/hda5) in my case too. But I'm 99% sure I asked the
installer to format /.

I the end, I booted using the live CD (F6, and adjust the line),
installed Lilo and used 'update-lilo' then edited /etc/lilo.conf myself.

2006-07-31 Thread Matt Blissett
I have the same, the installer crashed whilst installing the bootloader,
which hasn't installed correctly. Is this because GRUB doesn't work if
/boot/grub/... can't be accessed by the BIOS? I.e. my / partition is
40GB after the start of the disk (Windows got there first). I've never
had GRUB working in this situation, but Lilo does (I think all of LILO
fits in the MBR?)

Hello all,

had an installer crash during installation. First attempt at installing Ubuntu 
on a Toshiba Satellite M40 331 laptop.
Call trace and logs (attached) :

in progress_loop
raise RuntimeError, (Install failed with exit code %s; see 
RuntimeError: Install failed with exit code 1; see /var/log/installer/syslog 
and /var/log/syslog

I would be glad to help debug this one, more details on demand.

Romu

Parhog,

My problem was that the HD had a damaged portion, and UBUNTU didn't cope
with it.  Eventually, partitioned off the bad sectors and it now both os
work ok.
