HI,, i've been trying to get ubuntu installed all day and startign to give up, i burned the iso disc and went through the "boot from cd" but when i get to the option screen, that says things like install ubuntu and test disk, it doesnt go anywhere then finally tells me to reboot. i tryed hitting f6 then deleting the quiet splash and tryed adding things like noapic nolapic..etc that i read to do when having problems but no luck there. I also tryed running wubi which worked but when i hit the install button, which i think installs ubuntu fully it takes me through 7 steps then during the installation gives me the error "the ext 3 file system creation in partition #1 of loopback (loop2) failed" i have no idea what im doing wrong, any suggestions to get on track would help, thanks!
