After I installed Ubuntu 8.04 Server under Dell Latitude D600,
then it restart the laptop and show me this code:

The kernel requires the following features not present on the CPU
0:6
Unable to boot - please use a kernel appropriate for your CPU
Anyone can help me to fix it?
Thank you for your reading...:)

My laptop config:

Try downloading the Desktop edition, not the server edition.

You can do this, you just need another kernel. After installation, boot from the CD and select rescue a broken system.

Switch to another console(Alt+F3 or something), hit enter, mount the root partition on /mnt and bind /dev:

mount /dev/sda1 /mnt
mount -o bind /dev /mnt/dev

enter a chroot:

chroot /mnt /bin/bash

and install another kernel, removing the old:

apt-get install linux-generic
apt-get purge linux-server linux-image-server

Finally, you need to update grub:

update-grub


Then reboot and it should work:

exit
umount /mnt/dev
umount /mnt
reboot

I am having the same issue. After installation, I boot from the CD to "Repair Broken System". Once I select this the installation process starts over again, prompting the user for a language.

Any ideas? Is this the only way get the command line prompt?
