Created attachment 161692 [details] while trying to use more than the / partition at install time it was custom partitioning. also it says it was unable to inform kernel about modifications to /dev/sda5. /dev/sda5 was not modified in any way. it happened both in live cd and in dvd install. once i used only /dev/sda1 for / , and no othe partition, install from live cd was ok (that's why i can send you this message :)) also, one thing i've noticed, i could not mount /dev/sda5 from live cd (gnome), but usb disk was automounted just fine, again that's why i can send this file now :)
