I have very similar problem as Yotam Medini. Using LiveCD for installation, the creation of ext3 system stalls at 5% and the system freeze (no response to keyboard, mouse).
The system is a Celeron 2.0G with 1G DDR-PC2100 memory, I am trying to make a single boot (not dual-boot) system on a dedicated 40G hard drive. At first, I suspected the LiveCD is not good enough, but it is verified that is a good one. It looks that using alternate CD will not help either (can somebody please confirm this?). Then, what if I install Xubuntu 8.04.1? Will that change anything? I am pretty new on Linux, so please be kind to me. ;) (BTW, for my case, will installation of a 6.X Xubuntu help? On the other hand, if I somehow managed to install some lightweight Linux, such as puppy, then create ext3 system on that, can the installation of Ubuntu/Xubuntu bypass that fatal step I had? ) Thanks! -yw_ys -- The ext3 file system creation in partition #1 of SCSI1 (0,0,0) (sda) failed. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/99908 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
