Hello everyone
I am new to linux, but very familiar with the bios, and installing other OSs. I have recently been trying to install Xubuntu, but it won't work. I boot the computer with the disc and select "Install Xubuntu." I walkthrough the setup questions, and tell the partitioner to wipe Windows XP off completely, and install Xubuntu. Then it goes all the way to 90%. All that happens then, is the screen goes black, and brings me back to the live cd desktop. the computer will not boot off of the hard drive. the computer is a pentium 4, with 256 MB of RAM, and a 20 GB hard drive. I burnt my cd with my mac, using Disk Utility
Thanks
