I'm trying to install ubuntu 10.10 on my IBM R40e using the minimal cd image but every time when it gets to "downloading release files." then that small grey window goes and it just sits there with a blue screen.

i'm using grub4dos to map it but i've tried both direct and memory mapping but nothing seems to work. any idea's?

Are you making Ubuntu the only operative system on the machine?
