A bit more about that previous post. I got the error with the release disc, but not with the beta disc. The beta installation ran to completion. However, it would not boot.
While troubleshooting I noticed that my CD-ROM was on the primary controller and the one IDE drive was on the secondary, and I had read somewhere that such configurations will not boot, so I swapped them. It still wouldn't boot, so I tried installing the beta again. This time I *did* get the "insert disc" message. Somehow the difference between being on the primary and secondary IDE controller made a difference, at least for the beta installation. -- Alpha-5 alternate installer fails https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/270461 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
