whenever i try to install ubuntu i get about 2 seconds in when this shows up:
[ 0.184011] [<c04ab09e>] __init_begin+0x9e/0xa9
[ 0.184011] ===================
[ 0.184011]---[ end trace 4eaa2a86a8e2da22 ]---

and it stops completely.

is there any was for a novice like me to fix this so that it continues installing?

and also i am installing it in Microsoft Virtual PC 2007 if that hepls.

thanks!

You'd probably have an easier time installing Ubuntu under Sun's VirtualBox (http://www.virtualbox.org), which is also free.

There is some potentially helpful advice about noreplace-paravirt (http://blogs.technet.com/seanearp/archive/2008/05/13/installing-ubuntu-8-04-hardy-heron-in-virtual-pc-2007.aspx) which looks relevant.
