Hi - I am not even sure how to describe this but here goes:
I have been running kubuntu 8.0.4 for a few months now, I like it. I chose the Install in Windows option, and have loved it.
Last week, I rebooted windows to go into Linux, but during boot up, instead of going to the boot manager where I can choose to boot Kubuntu or Windows, a message flashes on the screen it goes so fast that I do not get the chance to read it, I think it says something about boot.ini or something ini and Windows boots up instead.
I poked around the drive I chose to install it in, but was unable to find any files that keep any kind of log.
Needless to say, I couldn't figure it out so I decided to just reinstall kubuntu and start from scratch, except now when I mount the image, or insert the cd the initial install screen comes up, I choose Install in Windows option, it immediately shows a dialog box with a rapidly updating progress bar which also disappears immediately, and then nothing happens. The installer never starts.
Does anyone have any ideas as to where I should be looking to resolve this?
thanks.
EDIT: Also, when trying uninstall from Windows Add/Remove Programs and again nothing happens - I get an hourglass for like 10 seconds then nothing.
