 Re: Grub install failed.
nah, ubuntu is too smart. sorry, i didnt mean completely automatically, but here's how easy it is:
start gparted from the parted magic live cd, and remove all partitions you made, except keep the windows partition. then "resize/move" the windows partition so there is like 10-15gb free space (thats plenty, but you can have more)
so now you have like 10-15gb of "unpartitioned" disk space. leave it like that.
now install kubuntu and whe it asks you about partitioning select "guided-use free space"
it should install and you are done.

"Naming them would either make it clear that Linux is not infringing at all (which is quite possible, especially if the patents are bad), or would make it possible to avoid infringing by coding around whatever silly thing they claim,"
"So the whole 'We have a list and we're not telling you' should tell you something. Don't you think that if Microsoft actually had some really foolproof patent, they'd just tell us and go, 'nyaah, nyaah, nyaah!'?"
