Well,well,well,well...
its been weeks that am trying to install ubuntu in my hd....

I have a DVD driver, 200Gb HD and an external 250
I installed through DVDdriver ubuntu to the external but for a reason -which i will not explain for laziness sake- i cant use DvD to install to internal HD... internal 'n external HD's have communication, which comes down to paritition love(orgy-same thing)
Meaning, i copy the installed linux partition of the External into an image then restore it to internal(also made boot partition and swap with appropriate space in each) so it would be like i was install it there ;D
:( did that, but when i try to boot from teh internal and then teh pimp comes out, grub says ERROR 22!1!one!1(usually for deleted paritions??) damnation till celebration!!
Sooow,do u ( yes ,u ,the one who reads this ) know a way out of this, things that i missed or another good way to put buntu in teh internalz ;D
once again ;D

why not re-install on internal one if you have backups of your files.
