[ubuntu-my] Balasan: hard disk can't fdisk etc

[Muhammad Radzi Ismail]

are you connect this harddisk through external connection?if yes..In this case..you are trying to install ubuntu in 'external disk'...i mean you use other computer to install  to  other  than internal harddisk,it will failed as ubuntu will mount that 'external harddisk'...so  firstly...boot  manually in livecd  without  connect  that 'external harddisk' yet...then after  you  login  in livecd...system-->preferences->removable drivers and 
media preferences-->uncheck everything over there..then connect to that 'external harrdisk'..install as usual:)

or even interesting(or first method failed)...do you know that you can just install ubuntu while using windows..there are 2 methods that i know...one is using virtual system(VMpalyer(better) or virtual box)
 that created for windows..and other one is using 'good bye to windows system'(recommended )...refer this-->

Dear Ubuntu gurus, geeks & fans,

I have an old laptop (thinkpad 240x) - with no internal floppy / cdrom.

It has 12G hard disk with some "tik tik" sound during booting (bad
sector maybe?) - but operation inside WIN2000 is OK.

Current partition as follow :
hda1 = NTFS WIN2000 6G
hda5 = FAT32 5.5G
hda6 = FAT32 0.5G

* hda5 & hda6 was just created inside WIN2000 without any problem,
format & chkdsk also OK.

I want to install Ubuntu, but since it has no CDROM I took out the Hard
disk and connect it to other PC + IDE adapter.

The hard disk detected well, but it always failed when come to FDISK
(normal fdisk, gparted, ubuntu installer etc) - error message about Bad
Sector continues coming out but PC not freeze, and "tik-tik" sound from
hard disk also keep coming out..

I think it has to do with bad sector inside hda1.

Does anybody have idea to fix this, or at least how to make Linux ignore
hda1?


Regards,
TAISIR
