multiple failures trying to install 12.10 from live DVD
I'm new at Linux, and this is frustrating me beyond belief! I tried poking around a little. I can't even figure out how to confirm that the live DVD 'sees' my hard drive, in order to install Ubuntu properly! I tried to restart a full reinstall (deleting everything on the HD from the previous) several times! Sometimes I get an error message. Error code 10 was one. Other times the installer just crashes to desktop. You know, like Morrowind on Windows XP: poof, hi desktop background image. Are there step-by-step instructions somewhere for a newbie to follow? I tried searching this site for 'newbie install' but no dice.
