Thread: 11.10 installation - "NTFS mount denied", then busybox


i'm trying install 11.10 via wubi, i'm ending in busybox on first reboot. after initial countdown briefly displays "...iwatch....dm-xx... mount failed", shows splash screen , gives me false/misleading message ntfs volume locked , should run chkdsk windows (which robbed me of 2 hours of life).

host ntfs volume clean, no errors. have fakeraid setup intel ich10r, 2x1tb merged, know problem i've used wubi-installed lucid year on same setup , had no problems.

btw. if 'cd' busybox '/isodevice' see host ntfs volume, should not happen if can't read raid partitions.

the problem device /dev/dm-2 cannot mounted @ /tmpmountpoint because it's mounted /isodevice. busybox if 'umount /isodevice' can 'mount /dev/dm-2 /tmpmountpoint -t ntfs'.

running 'mount' shows '/isodevice' mounted
'/..xyz../mainvolume' (not '/dev/dm-2'), , mainvolume name of raid volume.

possible wubi or device autodiscovery cannot tell /dev/dm-2 , /xyz/mainvolume same block device?
