Hi, having a problem installing Ubuntu on a a Presario sr1420nx. I'm getting ata1.0 errors. I have tried 2 hard drives and still no love. I know a bios update might fix this but Compaq flash utility has to be run through Windows apparently. I would like to use the IRQpoll install option and see if that helps. I am at the boot options and the last option is initrd=/casper/initrd.gz quiet splash --. Does this -- always have to be at the end of the options or is it part of the last option? It looks like it might be required at the end. The other question is what is the exact statement I need to install with the irqpoll option? Thanks
