Hi,
I have downloaded the Ubuntu 8.04 LTS Desktop for 64 bit and it always goes into error.
I have a new Acer notebook Intel Core 2 Duo, 160 GBHDD, 2 GB RAM
No software except for Linplus OS is pre-installed
Since Linplus Linux is already installed - could that be the reason why Ubuntu can't start installation.
I don't get a GUI Menu after the Language and "Install" options are selected - after these 2 steps it goes into
* Loading Kernel
* Busybox v.1.1.3
* (initramfs) [ 39.799278] ata2.00: revalidation failed (error=-5)
* [ 39.825696] ata2: exception Emask 0x1 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x0 t4
* [ 39.825736] ata2: irq_stat 0x40000008
Downloaded from the website:
http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download
Really frustrating as no website on the entire net can suggest how to uninstall Linplus or any Linux OS except for buying a Windows XP CD and then using that to format the HDD.
:(
At wits end with it - any solution to this error ?
Best Wishes,
