Hi, I've just recently installed Ubuntu 10.10 onto my laptop and near the end it came up with an error saying cannot install bootloader. So I carried on the installation and booted up the laptop using the live cd. I've had a quick look on this forum but couldn't see anything about installing a bootloader, so any help will br great

Hi. Welcome to the forums.
Sometimes manufacturers lock the MBR to prevent viruses. Look under your Laptop's Bios if you've got an option there.
For reinstallation of Grub, see here.

If you are not sure how to do that, you can post the output of bootinfoscript as per instructions here.

So we can know more about your setup and advise accordingly.
Good Luck!
