Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: base-installer

hello,

sorry but i dont know if i had choose the correct package.
I have ubuntu edgy Knot3 that i booted from the cd. and simply klicked on the 
install icon on the desktop.

my partitions are as follow: 
   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/hda1   *           1        1945    15623181    7  HPFS/NTFS
/dev/hda2            1946        4984    24410767+  83  Linux
/dev/hda3            4985        7416    19535040   83  Linux
/dev/hda4            7417        9733    18611302+   5  Extended
/dev/hda5            7417        8632     9767488+  83  Linux
/dev/hda6            8633        9617     7911981    7  HPFS/NTFS
/dev/hda7            9618        9733      931738+  82  Linux swap / Solaris

note: "hda5 was only flagged as PartID83 but new not formatted ( before
it was an NTFS part.)

As the installer came to the part to select the partition it would like to 
?resize hda5? and appears an error message. 
So i checked the option that i want to handle myself. and now it hangs. i have 
tried it several times.
Only if i format /dev/hda5 (ext3) it never would to resize the part. and the 
installatin went through.


sorry for  my poor english. 
i hope this could help you 


regards 
L.
