Ok, I have xp installed on my main partition and I have a second partition with Vista on it. I tried to install Ubuntu 7.10 using the alpha version of Wubi.

First, I had the error "Buffer I/0 error on device fd0, logical block, 0." I read up on that error and found out that it will go through all the errors after a while. So I left my computer go for a couple hours (I'm pretty sure it took less than a half an hour to complete) and came back to find a black screen. No text or anything.

It seems like I am destined to not use linux cause I have had a lot more troubles in the past as well. So can anyone help me?

Thanks.

I had the same problem, but it went away after I did a chkdsk on the drive I want to install on.

Yes, always run chkdsk /r
