The upgrade from 11.04 to 11.10 did not go well - I had so many issues that I decided to reinstall. I've upgraded it every time since Dapper, so I figured it was time.
Big mistake. I just can't get 11.10 installed.
My question is - why won't the installer let me run live or install to a hard drive? When I select either of these options it just beeps and won't go past the menu.
I am trying to use "rescue a broken system" from Advanced options, but that fails when reinstall is nearly complete, as it's installing software for an Ubuntu Desktop install. This is after I've reformatted all my drives to make sure there are no existing files interfering.
This is using the alternate install .iso, with the standard .iso I get a corrupted screen. I don't think it's the media (I'm using a USB flash drive), it installed all the software once but screwed up GRUB.
Oh what a day...
