im turning this into an install guide
Unadresed problems:
1. battery not detected / no power mangement
2. boot splash screen
booting from the live cd:
after inserting the disk and booting when the you get to the purple splash screen press "esc" select your language then press F6 and select "no=acpi"
install as you normally would if you are new to Linux here is a guide
when you reboot at the grub menu press 'e' on the first item of the list this will bring you to a bunch of commands
this should get you into ubuntuMove to the line:
> linux /vmlinuz... ro quiet splash
add options to the end of the line; for example:
> linux /vmlinuz... ro quiet splash apci=off
Type <Ctrl>-x <Enter>
after you boot in do this:
rebootopen your terminal
and type:
$ cd /etc/default
$ sudo gedit grub
Change the line:
> GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""
to:
> GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="acpi=ht"
quotes required.
save as "/etc/default/grub"
Update the GRUB2 bootloader:
$ sudo update-grub
to get your sound working right:
next fallow these instructions
and now these
so far this is all i have credit goes to:

original post:
i installed 10.04 but did not know how to have the apci=off option like i had in the live cd i assumed (incorrectly) that the option continued on to the installation can any one tell me how to set apci=off before during or preferably after
i have searched around for a while but am not able to find anything that helped
