What is the best way to install Kubuntu 8.04 if there is already Fedora 7 installed? At the end of this message you can find my /etc/fstab file

while installing after selecting the language (step3) this message appears:

Partman failed with exit code 10. Further information may be found in /var/log/syslog. Do you want to try running this step again before continuing? If you do not, your installation may fail entirely or may be broken.

here is the 'important' part of the /var/log/syslog:

howei, are you thinking that there is some sort of "upgrade" path from Fedora to Ubuntu?

There isn't.

They are not in any way related (expect that they are both linux).

Thank you!
This is what I was thinking about, too. But how do I remove the Fedora partition in a clean way??

With Ubuntu live CD booted I see only the ubuntu file system.
Is there an option removing/replacing the Fedora ext3 partitions.
Is it possible to remove the partition within Fedora????:confused:

Sure! There is no update from Fedora to Ubuntu.
But when I switched from SuSE to Fedora some years ago the old (SuSE) partitions were detected and listed and I could repartionate the hard disk for the new installation.
In this installation the installation just gets stuck - with no message at all.
When I switch to live CD, then start the installation the listed message appears.

Thank you for any further help
