D/l'd iso from Ubuntu website last week; burned to CD at 16x and verified. Tried installing as only OS onto used 17GB HDD in old 933MHz HP box w/ 2x256MB RAM; failed. Other tries (all failed at same 49% place): changed HDD to used 10GB; burned CD at 8x (slowest my burner will run) and verified data after burning; started CD in HP's burner drive instead of CD ROM drive; "downgraded" to 17" Dell CRT monitor (from 15" Sony flat panel). Both burned CDs will run in live mode. Suggestions? Robert
