Hello Ubuntu Forums,
I'm having trouble installing Ubuntu server on my old Dell Dimension 3000 desktop (Intel Pentium 4 processor: 2.80 GHz). At the moment, it has no operating system installed. The only OS i can use right now is the Slitaz/OPHcrack Live CD. Luckily, it has GParted (and other useful things) installed. When I try to boot from a Ubuntu CD it tells me Grub Error 15 or Grub Error 22. When i try to install Slitaz onto the hard drive and i reboot i get Grub Error 15. This is because I installed Slitaz successfully and then deleted the partition with GParted. All I want to do is install Ubuntu Server. Right now I have /dev/hda1 which is 10GB, and the rest (65GB) of my hard drive is empty. Can anyone help? :)
TL;DR: Old Desktop. Broken Grub. Only Slitaz Live CD Loads, else: Grub Error 15 or 22. Goal: Ubuntu Server.
