Public bug reported:
Both Ubuntu 8.04 and 8.10 fail to install on my Fujitsu-Siements Lifebook
E-seriers laptop computer. In the boot menu both memory test and CD integrity
test pass. I can boot into the Ubuntu Live session. However if I try to install
the system I fail at different stages in the installation process. Either of
the following happens:
1. The installation fails when copying files to the formated hard drive saying
there is something wrong with the CD and suggested to re-burn the CD or clean
the CD reader.
2. The creation of the filesystem (ext3 on an 80 GB HD) fails without
explanation when doing the guided partitioning.
The process is the same on both 8.10 and 8.04. I can install latest
Debian Etch without any problems. I will now try to install the
alternate CD to see if it works installing this one. I will complement
this but report with the result thereof. I have previous installed
Ubuntu 8.04 via the Windows installer onto the windows HD without any
problems.
If I can be of any more assistance (like trying something out) please
let me know.
