[Cialug] ubuntu 11.11 install hangs

[Ralph Kessel]

thanks i guess I'll have to go for a clean install. BTW i'm looking for a desktop linux for my new windows based laptop. I don't wish to wipe out windows which my wife uses. And I could use my linux over the top. Thanks.

Ralph

I don't know for sure why that would happen. I myself had a problem upgrading but everything was fine when I did a clean install. (my installation completed but when trying to login with the standard desktop (not Unity 2d) it funny things would happen)

There is an alternate installer. It's not as pretty but it works good, it's the same one used for the servers. You can find it here if you want to give it a shot: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/alternative-download#alternate

Trying to reinstall ubuntu 11.11 for second time. Using feature of installing ubuntu 11.11 over ubuntu 11.11. Goes through all of the steps but hangs when completing installation with last message : Asking all remaining processes to terminate. This has been going on for at least an hour. I hesitate to stop the process. I have my system backed up. But I don't wish to a destructive reinstall. Any suggestions?
