My younger brother was given this for use at school:
http://www.gateway.com/systems/product/529668268.php
He hates Windows (this one runs Vista) and wants to reformat with Ubuntu. I have done this before and it was pretty easy, so I agreed to do it for him. I downloaded the netbook edition of Ubuntu, checked the hash, wrote the image file on a 2GB usb drive, went to the BIOS, told the netbook to boot from the USB drive... Keeps giving me an invalid/corrupt error message. I went back and wiped the drive and started all over, completely rewrote it on there and... same problem. I have no idea how to fix this. Please help?
