Hi,

I am just trying to install 64 bit of Ubuntu 9.10 but I do not see the graphics which we used to see in the installation of 32 bit version. I mean you have to select various options using keyboard only. While during 32 bit installation one can use mouse to selection option.


Is am i missing something here?

Thanks and with best,
sushil

Guess that solves the issue ;-) . Try using unetbootin for further installations ( I always end up dlding something else ;-) ) using a usb if the BIOS supports it- would relieve you the pain of burning a cd . Felt it was faster.
