Hi everybody,
I bought a new HD, so it was completely empty.
First, I´ve installed windows creating one ntfs partition and leaving lot of free space to linux.
When my windows was completely set, I started the Linux installation.
So, I booted from the 11.04 cd and started the installation. I selected to choose manually the partitions.
I created one partition of 50 Gb (extfs 4) to /, one of 4 Gb to swap and the last with 800 Gb (extfs 4) to /home.
The problem is that the installation stops creating the file system of the first extfs4 partition (stops at 33%). I tried it 3 times with the same problem (all the times it stops at 33%).
I would like to preserve my windows partition. It took almost a day to install everything on it.
Any idea of what I can do?
