Installing Mint 14; installer crash [SOLVED]
Posted: Thu Nov 22, 2012 5:42 pm
Hi,
I was going to do a clean update from Mint 13 to Mint 14.
I downloaded the 64bit ISO and created a bootable USB key using ImageWriter. It boots just fine and everything is working.
I start the installer and choose to install / on sda with formatting, and /home on sdb with no formatting. After a minute or so the installer crashes at "removing conflicting operating system files"
I try again, with only the sda disk installed in my computer, doing a standard install where I let the installer do everything automagically..unfortunately it still crashes.
I can see there's a bug report for this ( #946663) but it seems unresolved...or it says "fix released" but I have no idea how to apply the fix...
As of now I have no OS on my computer, the installer formatted the disk before it crashed.
Please, I'd really appreciate it if someone could help me out here...
