"Fix released"? Come on, even if that guide was changed, the problem would not be fixed. I have enumerated a bunch of things you could do to rectify the situation at least slightly, most of which only incidentally involve a little documentation. For the most part, you should assume that people will not read documentation just to figure out how to give you feedback.
The real bug is that nobody with a basic understanding of usability has paid any attention to the scenario screaming children + old hardware + angry spouse + installer wipes your hard drive and sets your house on fire. You really really should make it as obvious and painless as possible to file a bug and/or get help when this happens. -- Unobvious where to report Ubuntu installation problems https://launchpad.net/bugs/57189 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
