OK, after asking some questions, I found out that Wubi doesn't support Lubuntu (or vice versa) so I don't know what the plans are there? I suppose technically that ubiquity shouldn't offer the option to install inside Windows with Lubuntu, but I'm also sure tweaking ubiquity for each specific flavor of Ubuntu would be a nightmare.
So maybe I should open a separate bug stating that ubiquity offers an invaild option from the Lubuntu live CD? I'll do whatever I'm told ;^) I honestly think Lubuntu's target audience won't so much be those with newer OEM PCs that are likely to have 4 NTFS or FAT partitions anyway. But onto Ubuntu, I decided to repeat the test with the Ubuntu live 20110901-i386 image and it works as expected .......... almost. I'm including a picture of the screen after clicking "continue" having selected "install inside windows". There is no prompt to remove disc, which is not automatically ejected, and no prompt to press enter or anything. In fact removing the CD and pressing enter does nothing. I had to hit the reset button on the PC but when Windows did reboot and finish loading the Wubi installation screen did appear as it should. Why I didn't get that with the Ubuntu 20110831-i386 iso I don't know??? I was tired and Windows XP takes a long time to become "usable" after booting, perhaps due to the anti-virus and other junkware, so maybe I just got impatient :^( Hopefully the included picture will be helpful, I'll try to complete the Wubi install soon. ** Attachment added: "IMG_4364.JPG" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/838040/+attachment/2338830/+files/IMG_4364.JPG -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/838040 Title: Wubi installer fails to run after choosing install inside windows To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/838040/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
