Hi guys,
New here, new to Linux, new to Ubuntu. Something of a Windows, sort of power user, sick of it.
Trying to install UNR on the Aspire One, it has an 8GB SSD, and I also have an 8GB SD card, sometimes in while trying to install, sometimes not.
Not going to try and re-type all the stuff, figured I'll post some screenies instead. I've tried to search, but so many variations of the netbook model, so many different issues, and me not knowing all the terms, so, here goes:
The installer tends to hang at 70% while launching the partitioner, at the menu: 'Detecting File Systems'. Sometimes happens, sometimes not, installer functions better while running UNR off the live CD.

Not really a major issue, but maybe a symptom?
Big problem is here, when I get through, I get a partition failed to mount message:

The drive is empty of all partitions prior to beginning the install:

Have tried multiple different sources of ISO files. Have tried multiple different USB programs. Tried multiple different USB Pen Drives, and have tried to install the OS on both the SSD & SD Card.
Getting pretty frustrated at this point. I even tried to install Jollycloud, which installed successfully, however GRUB failed to install.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
GB
