/dev/sda5 was an unformatted piece of the disk that
was left there I do not know why. When I retried the
installation, I removed the swap and all empty
nonformated partitions keeping only the first two
partitions. Installation worked the next time around.
I have redone this installation and it has worked.
Got some other problems like sound not working. Will
get back to ask questions when needed.
Regards,
Antonio
