New Wubi version (test3) is out

[Vadi]

What do you mean?

I'll try re-installing test3 again then I guess, but right now the minefield can't get me into grub even.

Test3 simply gives me an invalid username error every time i try and install. No Luck yet

Tested with UbuntuStudio, no problems found besides the usr.virtual.disk and extra.virtual.disk not found message at boot.

Is this version supposed to have any fixes for the suspension/hiberation problems some people have been having?

I've had no problems whatsoever with test3. Then again, I didn't install Automatrix2 this time, as I did with test2 and ended up with shutdown problems.

I uninstalled Wubi and completely started from scratch...not something I want to do have to again, so what is the easiest way to maintain my Ubuntu installation while upgrading Wubi versions?

No luck still.

I've installed test2, it got me into grub just fine. Froze at 33%, but that's okay, since that was a known problem there. I installed then the latest minefield - but it now gives me the same old error before even loading grub, that ntoskrnl.exe is missing or corrupt. While it's perfectly fine and win2k still boots from it, and test2 did too.

Any idea why the minefield is failing to load it then?

Use test 3

Test3 was the one that wasn't modifying the boot.ini properly, but I'll try it once more. I'll save a copy of the current working boot.ini just in case.

Edit: Installed test3, it didn't modify the boot.ini like it was previously, so I copied over the working one from the minefield. Waiting on the thing to defrag, and then I'll reboot

Test3 gives me the ntoskrnl.exe before grub also :/. Looks like something happened to it since test2.

Installed using test3 and had no problems. Previously I was stuck at 33%.
