Hi, Ive changed from WIndows XP to Ubuntu, however, I am having problems installing it. I am installing from USB. I can run it from USB and test Ubuntu which works fine. But when i install it to hard drive the installation screen works and allows me to pick a language,time zone, name etc...its gets to the percentage install screen and after that all that happens is a flashing cursor.
any help?
thanks in advance

have you tried to configure the partitions my ideea is that maybe he installes your system on your usb stick and not in the hard-drive
but like a question, why don`t you download the ubuntu 9.10 iso from the website and try to install from a cd
