I booted ubuntu-10.04-desktop-amd64.iso from hard drive (not from cd).
When I ran the installer I get the following message

The installer needs to commit changes to partition tables, but cannot do so because partitions on the following mount points could not be unmounted:
/cdrom
Please close any applications using these mount points.
Would you like the installer to try to unmount these partitions again?The partion where livecd is mounted and the partition where I try to install ubuntu are different.
