<br>
I tried to install Ubuntu. I chose the "reformat the whole disk" and set<br>
up the partitions I wanted (/, /home, and swap). But then when it tried<br>
to proceed Ubuntu three times said,<br>
<br>
"The ext4 file system creation in partition #1 of SCSI (0,0,0)(sda)<br>
failed."<br>
<br>
Does anyone know why this might be?<br>
<br>
Thanks.<br>
