Hi All

I found many threads on this problem of BusyBox screen popping up in the middle of installation.
Let me tell u guys my story.

Had got a CD 2 days back and thought of installing it on my system
System Specs:
128MB+512MB RAM
Pentuim 4
Windows XP already Installed
40 GB SATA + 160 GB SATA
CD-ROM and a DVD-RW

After googling a lot I had read somewhere to remove the IDE cable connecting my DVD-RW ROM and try installing. The OS installed pretty neatly and was happy to finally install Ubuntu. But it was shortlived, as I Faced the Brown Screen of Death. dint know anything to do. Meanwhile, my reasoning enforced me to connect that DVD-ROM back again. Rebooted the System and found the dirty initramfs command prompt screen again.

So basically have 2 problems to solve:

1. How do I workaround with BusyBox Screen
2. even if I do, How do I handle the brown screen of death after I login

Yes i know there were many solutions posted but none worked for me. Can anybody point a fool proof solution to this busyBox problem which has worked for them. I think it because of the extra DVD-ROM thats causing the problem.
