After installing ubuntu, partitions are being shown as unmounted and cannot remount
I've been trying to do this all night and I still haven't been able to get Ubuntu to show up after the installation. I'm using rEFInd as a boot manager on my 9,2 MacBook Pro with Ubuntu 13.10. I've followed many different instructions to the T and none of them address this issue.
Tell me if I've done something wrong here:
Installed rEFInd and it works correctly.
Created three partitions on my hard drive. One being Mavericks, one for Ubuntu, and an 8GB partition for the Ubuntu swap file.
I created a bootable USB with Ubuntu 13.10
I restarted into rEFInd but the original boot loader for Ubuntu wasn't working so I used the fallback loader.
It starts in blind mode and starts the try Ubuntu mode.
I clicked install, clicked the install third party drivers so it would recognize all the Apple hardware (wifi, trackpad, etc)
Connected to wifi.
Then it asks to unmount disk partitions so I can change and resize them but I click no because everything is set up.
When it asks how I want it installed I clicked "something else".
I then select my 150GB hsf partition and change it to ext4 and put the mount point as "/" and check the format box.
Then I select my 8GB partition and change it to "swap".
After that is done I click install and it goes through the installation process and I make the account and whatnot.
Here is where the problem starts:
It finishes installing and says to reboot the computer so I reboot.
When it reboots into rEFInd there is no Ubuntu option, only the bootable flash drive.
When I boot into Mavericks and check the storage the two partitions are not shown but my OS X disc is still partitioned.
I check disk utility and it shows the Mavericks partition as fine, yet my two ubuntu partitions are greyed out and are not mounted.
If someone knows what I did wrong or can help I would greatly appreciate it.
