    Install issue on ShipIt CD (Ubiquity/QtParted?)

    my problem is the same as described in a previous post here:

    http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=7139.0

    Basically (for those who didn't rtft) Live CD boots fine. Go to install. Language, Locale, User setup fine.
    Partitioning.
    Seems to advance/collect information about my HD's, but shows no info or options.

    My setup is:
    HDA - NTFS (keep)
    HDB - FAT32 (keep) / 7GB avail. (KUBUNTU INSTALL)
    HDC - CDROM
    HDD - NTFS (keep)

    I've tried leaving the available space on /dev/hdb as just open space.

    I've also tried pre-formatting it with PartitionMagic as -- 1 Extended with: 1 Logical ext3 "/", 1 Logical ext3 "/home", and 1 swap (512MB).

    Running QtParted standalone seems fine, showing info and options etc. ...from pictures of Ubiquity installer, the partition info looks a lot like QtParted, so i assumed....


    My Question:
    How can i implement the solution mentioned in linked post (if at all) or alternately is there another manner of installation, possibly a script? I can do CLI install, not a problem.

    Unfortunately, i'm on dialup and the solution is beginning to become a personal crusade for me. Just can't believe that there's a problem with a distro that i ordered.

    TIA,
    HumanBlade *L*,

Working...
