Linux Don't Download The Live Version Of Ubuntu 11.04

Ubuntu 11.04 was released today, but it seems the much anticipated version has a minor bug which makes it difficult for users to install the version.

When we attempted to install Ubuntu via the Live version, we were not able to enter any text in the mount point box of the partitioning section.

If you are also facing similar problem let us know. I think it's a bad media!

Update: Swapnil just verified with the Ubuntu team and they have confirmed the bug. It is documented in the release note:

The manual mount point entry box in the desktop installer's partitioner does not accept keyboard input. The drop-down still works, so various standard mount points may be selected, but custom ones cannot. This was noticed too late to be corrected for 11.04. In the meantime, you can mount partitions manually later, or use the alternate install CD. (769043)

It is recommended that you use the alternate CD method to install Ubuntu 11.04. You can download the alternate CD from here.

However, the manual or non-graphical installation is a bit tricky. The best solution would be to install the OS using the LiveCD, without mounting the partitions during the installation. You can mount the partitions later, once you have the new Ubuntu installed.
