What sort of graphics card do you have?
Intel 915
Have you installed or is this with the live CD?
Live cd, i can't boot
It might be a bad CD burn or ISO download then. Try re-downloading the ISO and buring it to CD-R at a much slower rate to be safe.
I think the answer might lie in another thread regarding a corrupt squashfs. It seems that the iso itself is too big to be burned at least on some systems.Quote:

Yes i can, but, how to install with virtualbox?Quote:

The point I was getting at was referring to the ability to mount the iso as a disk image in whatever is your main OS on your computer. An example would be Apple's Disk Utility.
That way you have the option of doing a non-virtual install on your computer, something it seems most people here want to do.
