Super SLOW LiveCD and usb boot
I'm not a Linux noob, by any stretch, but this is driving me INSANE.
I have an Acer Aspire 4320 laptop, and I'm trying to install 10.10 on it.
The LiveCD, and the LiveUSB, take over 3+ HOURS to boot to a desktop. Then, it can't format the drive.
Am I missing boot options (i.e. 'noapic') or something?
Do I set the drive in bios to ide or AHCI? (If set to ide, it takes ALOT longer..approx 45 min to get to the "run" or "install" screen)
Any ideas would be VERY much appreciated
EDIT: I did manage ONCE to get to 'check this drive for errors', no killers found. (At the 'keyboard screen, I pressed 'space'). Do I need to add any other options here?
PS: The only 'guides' I have found only go to Gutsy, so...
