This does indeed appear to be a dying hard drive. Please try checking the health of a drive using a utility or replacing it, then installing again with the Ubuntu 8.04 release.
I'm marking this as Invalid, however if you are still experiencing this problem with the new release and a known-good drive, please feel free to reopen the bug. Thanks and sorry for being late in reply. ** Changed in: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Invalid -- Ubuntu 64 install failure https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/58494 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
