Hi group,
I have a Fujitsu Lifebook that I am attemping to install Ubuntu 9.04 on. The install runs most of the way but does not install the kernel or grub, so I can't boot the new system to fix anything. I have tried the install 3 times with the same results. All the installs failed at the same place. It drops out of the install and tries to report the error. Not sure if the report made it back to the support group.
I then tried to chroot the /target file system and run apt-get to install grub, that worked but the same method failed to install the kernel, 'apt-get install kernel-packages'.
I have Fedora Core 10 installed on this laptop but it is giving me troubles with building OpenWRT so I want to try Ubuntu.
Bottom line, how can I get the kernel installed using the install CD??
