I booted the live cd this morning and found everything to be great so I went for the install. Also easy. Then the system would not boot. I got the error:
grub loading stage1.5read error
I then found I was unable to boot the live cd any longer. it gave me a endless screen of errors.
I tried making a new boot disk and that did not work. I reinstalled xp with no problem. But i still can no longer boot the live cd.
I was finally ready to put a linux box in to daily use and now this. I had avoided it in the past due to installation issues or driver issues with wireless. what I saw of 8.10 this morning was great, all of my devices worked, I was ready to go.
I have searched the forums and tried adding options to use only ide, or no pnp, but still nothing. Please, any assistance is appreciated.
