Can't Install Linux - iv76erson03 - 2006-02-11
I'm trying to install Kubuntu on a secondary machine to give it a test run. Problem is my computer keeps locking up on the install. It always locks up on the "Creating ext3 file system / in partition #1 of IDE1 slave" part. Funny thing is, one time it will lock up on 22% the next time it lock on 53%, etc. I've tried 3 times and haven't gotten past this.
I tried a Unbuntu disc i made before this and it did the same thing. Any ideas? Also, what should I be selecting on the menu where it asks how i want to partition the drive? I don't see NTFS or FAT32 so i'm lost. [img]<___base_url___>/uploads/emoticons/default_laugh.png[/img] Thanks in advance.
