I downloaded the ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS desktop 386 iso, verified it with md5sum and burned a CD. I put the CD in a Dell 4550 and ran the CD defects detector without a problem. When I try to boot up in live CD mode, the progress indicator freezes at about 20 secs or so. I can boot an old ubuntu 8.04 live CD on the 4550 without a problem.
I have two other Dell machines: a Dell 4600 and a Dell 8400. The Ubuntu 10.04.1 liveCD boot freezes on the 4600, but comes up without a problem on the 8400.
I looked at the BIOS setup on all three machines and they all seem to have essentially the same settings allowing that the machines are different ages.
Anyone have any ideas?
