Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gparted
Hi.
I'm trying to install Ubuntu 10.10 64bit, but installer fails every
time. On a related note, I also tried installing Debian 6 and its
installer also gets stuck in Scanning disks... every time. So, I tried
to run gparted manually off the livecd but it crashed too. I think
installer uses gparted too, but I'm only guessing here.
Hardware isn't anything too exotic, some basic Asus motherboard, AMD
Phenom2 X6, Samsung spinpoint F3 1TB hd.
Here's the console output off from the livecd:
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo gparted
