I previously had windows vista and that stopped working after a hard shut down too many, it was slow and kept crashing.
Anyway, I turned to ubuntu 9.10 karmic koala. However much to my dissapointment it won't / can't install. The install bar gets stuck at
ext4 file system for/in partition #1 scsl1 (0,0,0)(sda)
a while later it says
ext4 file system for/in partition #1 scsl1 (0,0,0)(sda) failed
and then I can't do anyhing but try again which gives the same result.
If it helps out with the brainstorming windows messed up the hard drive pretty bad when using the "try out ubuntu without changing...." I couldn't even mount the hard drive.
I thought about just getting anouther HDD and installing that if you think I could resolve my problem other wise please let me know or if not please recommend me a hard drive it needs to be a SATA 3.5". My current (broken) one is the seagate Barracuda 7200.10.
