    [solved] installing ubuntu - partitioning issues

    Basically, I'm switching to Ubuntu from Windows. Downloaded the 8.04 iso from the Linux homepage, burned it, stuck it in, everything was going fine, until I got the partitioner screen.

    Nothing was there.

    I couldn't select any of the options (they were greyed out), and there were no apparent partitions.

    Anyone know how to fix this?

    Screenshot attached.

    SOLVED.

    HOW I SOLVED THIS PROBLEM: Change the jumper settings on your HDD to "Cable Select." The jumper settings are changed by moving the jumper on your HDD on the pins to a specific place, often specified on the outside of your HDD or in the manual. Thanks for everyone's help.
