Hello all!
I had initially wanted to install Ubuntu side by side with my OS X, but I didn't have the installation discs for it anymore and could not resize the partition, etc. I decided to use the Ubuntu PPC live cd to wipe out OSX and install Ubuntu only. The installer ran and erased my harddrive entirely, but then could not install Ubuntu. It could not create an Ext4 partition.
I tried configuring the partitions manually in MANY different configurations, and I keep getting the same message. In general, I have been creating the Ext4 under "/", then the Newworld boot at "home" and finally a small "swap".
Help please!
