danleff 0 Posted October 3, 2007 OK, so you downloaded the zip file, unzipped it and burned the iso image to a cd, as per the instructions on the Partition Logic page? What cd burning software did you use and what speed did you burn the image at? It should be burned at 2X or 4X speed, not the full capacity of the drives ability. Share this post Link to post
DosFreak 2 Posted October 3, 2007 I thought Ubuntu could resize partitions during the install? I could be wrong though. Also make sure you have a backup before messing around with your partitions. Share this post Link to post
Myke 0 Posted October 3, 2007 Also, did you make sure that you burned the CD properly? To my recolection, you can't burn an ISO simply as a data CD. I could be wrong, but I remember having this problem when trying to install Xandros. Share this post Link to post
