Re: [orca-list] Ubuntu 21.10 (Canary) installer inaccessible?

[John G Heim <jheim wisc edu>]

It is possible to install Ubuntu after booting from a live distro like 
GRML. I can share my notes on how I do it but I have to add the caviot 
that I wrote these notes for myself and they are incomplete.

These notes should be okay except for step 5. You have to create several 
files like /etc/fstab, /etc/resolv.conf, /etc/network/interfaces. If you 
ness those up, you're going to have problems. But you should be able to 
find instructions on other sites for creating those files. What I do is 
fetch an entire directory tree and then go through them one by one and 
customize them for my current install.
