I burned a copy of Ubuntu 9.10 onto a cd, which run completely fine, however after that I want to install it onto a 8GB USB stick. I first tried doing this using the install option from when Ubuntu loads right away off the CD but then tried using the software within Ubuntu. I was able to do this with a earlier version (ver 8) but now when I try this, both times the install works 100% then I restart my computer and the one and only thing that the screen shows is

GRUB _

(with a black screen)

I am a new Ubuntu user and if any help is out there is would be awesome.
Thanks so much for any help!!!!!

What software within ubuntu? You mean the Install Ubuntu option when you boot from the cd?
