Binary package hint: ubiquity
During install from disk v. 6.10 to Drive F:/ (empty w/ 20GB size), first effort stalled during "set time." No effort to "continue," "back," or other mouse clicking changed anything. So, I shut down and turned computer off.
Second try at install succeeded when "set time" was by-passed. Every step proceded as expected until installer was copying files. At about 75% complete, the installer crashed. On screen report said to "attach files" </var/log/syslog> and </var/log/partman>
However, I can't access Drive F:/ from active Drive C:/Windows EX Pro, or from "Set Up" of BIOS. But I notice that the disk capacity on F:/properties reads: "Used 107MB, Free 14.8GB."
Since unbuntu community support and documentation indicates that a partition of at least 10GB is necessary for installation, I am at a loss right now and will appreciate your counsel.
Re: Bug # 91962:
Attempted installation program again. Skipped the "set time" again; instructed UBUNTU to delete everything on Drive F:/ (slave) and continue. The program performed admirably from that point on. The installation is now complete. After I take a break for a cuppa, I'll try the rest of the tweaking, such as font size and style, setting the clock, and other exploration.
Wanted you to know that the bug reported has been circumvented, even without knowing why it occurred.
Thanks for your attention.
