cannot install ocelot on vista amd64 machine, log file not found

This problem can be caused by:
1. minor partition table errors
2. leftover GPT partition table data
3. an unsupported fakeraid setup (?)

When you get to the point of the error you can drop to a terminal (Ctrl+Alt+F1) and run:
sudo parted -l
sudo fdisk -l

The first command (those are both lower case -L by the way) will tell you if there is some error. The second will usually indicate details that show the error (if it's partition table problems) and will also tell you if there is some GPT partition table data.

You can also try:
sudo blkid
This will give you some idea if a raid setup is in place.

If you have GPT data then checkout the fixparts program: http://www.rodsbooks.com/fixparts/

You can also do the same tests by booting from an Ubuntu CD or USB, select "Try Ubuntu" (without installing) and then drop to a terminal (Ctrl+Alt+t) from the deskop, and run the commands above. Or run the http://bootinfoscript.sourceforge.net/

PS your wubi log file is in the %TEMP% directory named wubi-11.10-rev24x.log - x is 1 or 4 (but in this case it's unlikely to provide any helpful information)

Warning: Unable to open /dev/sr0 read-write (Read-only file system).
/dev/sr0 has been opened read-only.
Error: Can't have a partition outside the disk!

It looks like a partition table error. Reviewing the output of 'fdisk' should show it. Probably some Partitioning Software will be able to correct it.

This question was expired because it remained in the 'Open' state without activity for the last 15 days.
