Work around: 1) Install Ubuntu on the /(root) partition, and mount your /home partition as /home2 2) When the installer has finished, BEFORE restarting, edit /media/[partition]/etc/fstab to change the home partition to be mounted as /home instead of /home2 3) Delete the current /media/[partition]/home directory, and move the empty /media/[partition]/home2 in its place 4) Restart
This should load up Ubuntu with a clean install and existing home partitions. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/924660 Title: 12.04 Installer stuck on 'Removing conflicting operating system files' To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/924660/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
