New question #77178 on Ubuntu: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/77178
Hi! After one of my friends suggested that I should try Ubuntu I downloaded the iso. file and burned it to a disc. Already at the beginning it caused problems - at first it froze in the boot menu after I chose language. I finally managed to install it alongside my Windows XP and I really started to enjoy Ubuntu. A couple of days ago I decided to make a full installation and delete windows but when i reached 60% of the installation it reported an error and cancelled the whole thing. "No root file system is defined" is the error - so I tried using Gparted to format the harddrive and obviously define it. But here I get another error: "Unable to detect file system! Possible reasons are: - The file system is damaged - The file system is unknown to Gparted - There is no file system available" Have i chosen the right way to try to solve the problem in the first place. If yes, how do I proceed from here? Right now I'm stuck here with no Windows, no Ubuntu and no computer skills... Please help! :) Mattias -- You received this question notification because you are a member of UF Unanswered Posts Team, which is an answer contact for Ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuforums-unanswered Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuforums-unanswered More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
