Ok please advise cos im getting very confused.
I have a Acer travelmate 240, 2.6Gig cpu, 1Gig ram, which had a working and uptodate version of Hardy on.
I tried upgrading to Kosmic 9.10 but choosing "install" from the menu just ran the "Live CD"??? (machine works fine in live cd btw).
I Tried it quite a few times, I download new .iso from a different source (country) and burnt it as slow as I could, I eventually tried installing 5 times same issue each time.
Eventually in desperation I installed xp and reformatted hdd.
Then tried the Kosmic install again, I choose english then install, and saw the ubuntu logo for a while but now screen is black and hdd and cd lights have been on all night, nothing seems to be happening.
any advise more than appreciated.
