[Ubuntu-PH] ubuntu-ph Digest, Vol 31, Issue 12

[roy choco]

Hi Daniel

I did not change any bios settings before and after  I installed feisty.  I
did not defrag my HD, I did not htink Kubuntu can be defragged.  I browsed
through ubuntu forums and there were some similar though not the same
problems.  I decided that it would be easiest for me, in the sense that I am
sure that it will work, to install gutsy from a dvd.  I've just finished
downloading a dvd version, all I need now is to back-up my files, through
Knoppix and install.

I really need to be more patient, I think it was my impatience that did me
in.
