Hi Paul,
There have been problems recently with people installing Ubuntu, and the installer not giving your root partition enough space by default. Have a look at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1219270
I expect that is the problem you are dealing with. Please let me know if you need more help, and good luck.

Can you help with this problem?
