I've installed Hardy Heron 7 times now and I've had the same problem every time. You can read my previous thread to see what that problem is: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4982599#post4982599
My question now is whether or not I'm even installing it correctly. I've recorded my installation process and uploaded it onto youtube here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S7_nekiw_Xo
It's only 7 minutes long since I only recorded the important steps. I'd really appreciate it if someone would watch my video and help me. Thanks a lot.

When you are trying login, try doing this:-
1) Press Options.
2) Press Sessions.
3) Select GNOME fail-safe.
4) Login.
See if that would allow you to login.

I watched most of the video. My question is did you do the CTRL+ALT+F1 to get another login prompt and type you password there? See if maybe your password is wrong.
Also output fdisk -l . Check fstab and make sure it matches. You could also try the "recovery mode" . Hit ESC right when you see the 3 second count down.

This worked but it's the only way I can get in. How can I fix this?

Try making a new user and then see if you can login to the account under a normal GNOME session.

Didn't work either.
