I also had this fail on an Acer laptop. I could not install lilo either
and had to re-install an earlier version to restore the bootloader.
In Hardy the drives were detected as sda whereas in Gutsy there are hda
- does this have something to do with the problem?
** Changed in: debian-installer (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Confirmed
