This has really thrown me.
I have been using Ubuntu for a few years now and have just decided to upgrade my home server with a bigger hard drive. I have opted for a fresh install of Ubuntu 9.10 x64 server edition and have plugged my new SATA hard drive and existing IDE CDRom drive into my box.
The install disk burns fine and verifys itself. I have also checked that it is ok as part of the install and again it shows as all ok.
The install starts fine and I can partition the drive (either mannually or guided) abd the base system starts to install but then at around 50% (roughly) I get a pop up box saying:
"Please insert the disc labeled: 'Ubuntu-Server 9.10 _Karmic Koala_ - Release amd64 (20091027.2)' in the drive /cdrom/' and press enter.
Pressing enter does nothing. I can't eject the CD any way and obvioulsy have no second disk!
I have burnt a fresh downloaded iso but again have the same problem.
I am sure that it is something simple but can't for the life of me figure out what!
