Brian

Thanks for your mail.

I can confirm that the installer just hangs on the "detecting filesystems"
dialog.  The progress bar does start to increase when the dialog first
appears and the stops at around 15%.  The interesting thing is that the file
system had been formatted (I previously had Kubuntu Dapper and a small XP
partition).  I did try the installer 3 times, the last of which I left it
for over an hour just to make sure it wasn't just running slow.  After the
first attempt the hard drive had been formatted so it would have had a clean
drive to partition.

Not sure if it helps but as previously mentioned the machine was a IBM
Thinkpad R40e (1.2ghz 512mb and 30gb HD).  I attempted to create the
following partitions :

8gb root
1024 swap
rest /home

One other thing to note is the R40e has know issue's with the ACPI
implementation, I had passed the "noacpi" parameter to the kernel at boot.

Hope this information helps.  If you need any further info or I can test
anything for you let me know.

Cheers

Andy
