[Bug 42003] Re: no root file system

[Ronald Bradford]

I also experience the problem. dapper-beta2 live cd.
output as requested.

ubuntu at ubuntu:/mnt$ sudo fdisk -l /dev/hdc

Disk /dev/hdc: 120.0 GB, 120034123776 bytes

I have also used fdisk to mark /dev/hdc2 with bootable flag (giving a different output to above), and rerun install from desktop icon, selecting manual configuration, but making no partition changes. Problem still occurs.
Current output after error.
