Re: Not able to Install Ubuntu - No Root File System Found
Dont panic alsiladka. Its very easy, Believe Me.
When on the Partition page in Ubuntu install, choose "Manual" and and the Partition will be shown like this:
Vista partition = sda1
2nd Partition = sda5
3rd Partition = sda6
You are concerned with 2nd one as the 3rd is your Backup partition.
If you are confused with your partitions' names then write down their sizes.
Here we go:
1: Choose sda5(ur 2nd partition) and create a "/" (Root) Partition, where your Ubuntu will be installed, preferably 39 GB, ext3 type and Choose mount point "/".
2: Use the remaining 1 GB as Linux-Swap.
Thats it.
Just to make sure that Grub is installed properly ,on the last page(Summary Page) of the installation, on the bottom-right side click on "Advanced" and make sure (hd0,0) is written there. It will write Grub into the 1 Hard Drive(hd0) into the 1st Partition(0).
Now when it is installed , it will reboot and you will be presented with The Grub Menu with Ubuntu & Vista entries. Choose your OS and have fun.
PS: What about the link i gave you in my previous post. Are you not following the steps? Clarify plz.
