Can't reinstall ubuntu
Ok so I'm on ubuntu 11.04 and have encountered I few problems that I can't seem to fix. I decided a fresh install was probably best so I made an installation disk and popped it in. everything loaded up fine and I went through the installation process, when I noticed the "update option". I decided to try it before trying the full re-install where I would loss all my files.
As soon as the reinstall started It said "saving installed packages". I left my pc for about an hour and when I came back it still said the same thing with the loading bar still stuck at the start. Any ideas how I can fix this?

Reboot the installation disc and skip the "update option"...
Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.

Could you tell us what "fixed" the problem, trivial or not? The thread isn't valuable without the information.
