having some problems

[Cyph3r]

Hi... I have some problems with trying to get kubuntu installed on my desktop. I have windows on it and want to do a dual boot setup on it. I have the kubuntu live cd... it is the newest version 6.06, but whenever i choose to install it to the hard drive it dosent do anything. Also i cant get my hard drive mounted, and it gives me some error saying something like cannot find /mnt/hda1 in /etc/fstab or something like that. So if anyone could help me please respond.
Thanks

First of all, if you're new, I'd recommend using Breezy instead of Dapper. Dapper hasn't been officially released yet.

When you say it "doesn't do anything," do you mean you never get to this screen?

Hi,

If you installed breezy (so you're not running a live cd), yes it's easy when you're ready to jump to dapper (maybe you can wait til next month for stable), just edit the file /etc/apt/sources.list :

kdesu kate /etc/apt/sources.list

and modify inside all instances of breezy by dapper
then

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

should get you in dapper...

Hope it will help
