I'm trying to install Kubuntu 8.04 on a new machine with a 750GB hard drive. I've tried everything I know w/o success. Installation freezes on formatting the drive everytime (3 hours wasted).

I tried to make:
1 30Gb partition (for dos) logical
1 30Gb partition / primary
1 4Gb partitions swap
1 400Gb partition /home logical
275Gb partition /public logical

The program does not format the drive and freezes.

Anyone know what the problem is here or how I can proceed without wasting anymore time on this pathetic problem?
