[Bug 1329062] Re: Installation on an ASUS UX301L gone wrong

[Luca-formaggia]

Eventually I had to zap out windows and install ubuntu stand alone. I
must say that the instruction to to dual boot with win8 are incomplete,
but this probably is linked to the many different systems that are
around that makes it difficult to provide a general recipe.

I was not able to set up the partitions myself, so I had to let the
installer do it for me. The only good news is that Ubuntu seems to work
very fine on this computer (so far).

Title:
  Installation on an ASUS UX301L gone wrong

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I have followed the instructions to install ubuntu alongside windows8.1. All went fine up to when the actual installation has begun. I would prefer to keep windows only becouse of all powerpoint presentation I unfortunately have.... and libreoffice is not yet able to cope with them.
  The log file should have been added automatically, I guess, since I am using the web form launched automatically after the crash.
