I'm sorry that happened to you, I wish I was there to just fix it.
Sounds like you didn't create a file system, or the creation of the file system fucked up.
I hope it goes better for you next time. You'll get it and once you do, it's GLORIOUS.
So I tried again because of your comment and found my issue. I wanted to keep windows and try out Linux mint and I didn't want to buy a USB drive so I used unetbootin to do whatever it does with the iso. I used the same HDD for the iso partition and where I wanted to install to (I have an SSD where windows is and 2 HDD). I guess you cannot do that because it couldn't unmount the drive? I moved the little fat32 iso partition over to my SSD and now it's installing.
Fuckin' rock out with your cock out man!
Yeah, Linux (and really any *nix) doesn't play nice with windows installs but windows doesn't play nice with *nix installs either, so... yeah.
