OK, I'm trying to install Ubuntu to my 80gb external (USB) hard drive.
The first problem I got was when the actual installation started, I got something like:
Blah Blah Blah Failed because Could not be unmounted:
/media/LaCie\ DriveDrive
Then when I cancel and try to install again, when the partition manager begins to start I get:
PartMan failed with exit code 10
I have had similar problems ejecting the drive in XP, and The ubuntu live CD, but not vista, where it says I cannot eject/unmount the drive because it is in use, then the second time I try to eject it it does so perfectly.
The drive is formatted in NTFS - but the Ubuntu installer formats it to Ext3 anyway so ..?
Help installing it will be greatly appreciated
