Maybe the SATA drive is problematic., Ill use a regular IDE Hard Disk
Ill
try if its the same then I try again.. :-)
To answer your questions :
* Also, if you really wanna try and nothing seems to work..all
installation seem to hang....so try burning the disk at 1x speed.
Does burning the ISO at lower speed has an effect on the data on the CD
Installer ? How ?
* And do you have any specific reason for not trying out the latest
release 7.10 of Ubuntu? Or even for that matter 7.04?
My only reason is that I only have Ubuntu 6.06 CD :-) Ill sure try the
latest release if I have the CD here.
Thanks.. !

* I suggest you check the forum for your specific situation.
* Did you do disc integrity check and checked if there are possible
problems with the disk?
* Also, if you really wanna try and nothing seems to work..all
installation seem to hang....so try burning the disk at 1x speed.
* And do you have any specific reason for not trying out the latest
release 7.10 of Ubuntu? Or even for that matter 7.04?

Ryan,
Formatting doesnt take longer than 10 mins max on SATA drive. But if you
repartition, adjust partition size it can be upto 1 hour depending on disk
size, I/O buffer and other factors.
I'd suggest you have a break....goto out have a coffee...!!

Ok, so now the download of Ubuntu 6.06 is finished, and I already made the
bootable CD. All running well, until on the partitioning part.
I have 200GB SATA hard drive and I chose to manually partition the disks. So
I made three partitions :
Partition 1 : 50 GB
Partition 2 : 50 GB
Partition 3 : 80 GB
.. and another for the swap partition
I clicked on forward and then it applies the changes I made (maybe
reformatting the partitions too). This is what is see on the screen now:
Apply Pending Operations
Resize /dev/sda1 from 190144 MB to 50198 MB
Completed Operations : 0 of 3 operations completed.
It seems the installer hangs here and the progress bar is not moving
anymore! What could be the problem?
Does the formatting of partitioned disks should take very long ? (It is
almost 1 hour and the message above is still displayed)
Should I use external partitioning software, like partition magic so that it
can take over the partitioning and formatting stuff ?
Thanks !

Hi Ryan,
First of all, you can try to start the GUI with teh command "sudo startx"
but I'm worried that it doesn't work.
In my opinion you should try to burn your cd again and try to execute the
installation,
because maybe you have one corrupted
package on your cd.
Hope this helps!
regards, Sauro

Hi!
I tried to install Edubuntu on my PC, everything works fine until on
install and select
it hangs and stays on 6% and after some time it gives
error that a package cannot be installed and that I can continue the
installation sometime. After continuing and installing GRUB, i did a reboot
and then I was able to log in to edubuntu but only in shell.. How do I run
the GUI from there?
Thanks!
