(K)ubuntu Dapper Flight 6 does not notice it -during its bootprocess- when the formatting of (empty) partitions has been changed with a LiveCD. It still expects the "previous" formatting and halts to the prompt during the bootprocess. And it is persistent: the only way to solve it is to manually change settings in "System Settings" to the true format of the partition(s). Mepis detects the formatting of partitions during bootup......

A (Mepis or Knoppix) LiveCD is ideal for this type of task. However, the Kubuntu LiveCD (flight 6) is useless for this, since all harddisk-partitions are mounted by default, so the drives are "busy", not "available".
