Sorry for double post:
Wubi:
@ FableFlame
It really looks like you have disk issues
I don't know what to suggest, apart from previously mentioned chkdsk or installing a second drive
@ Tweak,
Sounds like your router isn't delegating DNS requests properly
This may be fixed by switching it off for a couple of minutes
(there may be routing issues with the router caching an old config mapped to your MAC address)
If not, you will need to configure your DNS nameservers manually
Login to your router's web interface, and find out the 2 (primary & secondary) DNS IP addresses
They're usually shown in the router web interface, but if not, on your ISP's website (or give them a ring)
Right click network icon,
select "Edit Connections"
Edit your wired connection
IPv4 settings
"Automatic (DHCP) Addresses only"
enter DNS IP's (comma seperated)
Hmm okay, will try tomorrow, cheers.
Edit: Yeah, no. didn't work.
Edit again: Works. I'm not sure what happened exactly. I changed the UTP cable (turned out to be a cross-over cable), restarted eth0 but still didn't work. Restarted the LAN switch and all (was putting it all on a different power supply, don't ask, weird set-up), rebooted Ubuntu, still didn't work. Manually entered the DNS -and- search and it worked. Oh well.
Edit again again: So I did get it to work, but connections are extremely slow. When I ssh into the server over LAN, after entering the user and before entering the pass, it takes AGES, and when FTP'ing just changing dirs takes ages as well. When I actually do any uploading, I reach like 11,5 MB/s (over 100 Mbit LAN so that looks fine). :/ Any ideas?
Hell yeah, I finally got Ubuntu working on my computer using Wubi!!
I wanna say thanks to everybody who helped me get it working!
Awesome story:
I had a PC lying around (budget PC so yeah) which I installed Ubuntu on. It uses DDR2 RAM. I had some old extra DDR2 RAM (which was compatible) lying around, so I put it in. Turned PC on. Started smoking. Dead PC. Yay.
That blows.Quote:

Lol TweaK.
And Fableflame, how did you get it to work? Did that video help?
Yeah it did SomeGuy. I'm actually back on Vista right now though, so I can burn some dvds
Use Brasero Disc Burning for that ;)
