I'm not familiar enough with Wubi & the 64bit to know if that would bet
the problem, but I tend to agree with you that it might.

I just installed via Wubi on the WinXPPro drive (all 32bit) and the
install went just fine as far as the CD part... after the reboot it is
now in the "Installing System" portion, so I'll post back when it
finishes, or blows up my system :-) I only had 8Gb on the drive and
allocated 6Gb (the recommended by umenu) to Ubuntu & hopefully it won't
run into disk space issues.
