[Bug 259540] Re: Wubi - "No root file system is defined" error

2009-12-21 Thread MtMCooLBG
I have the same problem here, and like Stefano Bragaglia i think that this 
hidden partition is causing somehow the problem with wubi. 
Stefano Bragaglia i dont think that wubi target partition is hardcoded, because 
before i used windows Vista, and allways installed wubi in D:\ and it's not the 
first partition.

I think that wubi get somehow the partition number from windows accesible 
partition.
I mean that for windows 7 the first accessible partition is C:\ and the secon 
is D:\ etc ... 
and when you try to install in D:\ for example, it mark for installation the 
actual second partition wich in that case is C:\ (because the first is that 
system reserved), and the files for installation are in D:\, and then BUM -> 
that error.

My idea and my question here is, is there a way to manualy specify the target 
partition for the installation process(after reboot). 
For now i checked the wubi/grub config files, but didnt found anything to 
use/change.
