Hi,
Im new to the forum and to Ubuntu. I have a HP 'tablet' laptop which has no operating system installed and I was hoping to install Ubuntu.
I downloaded ubuntu and the software to make it possible to boot from usb. I started the laptop up selected the option to boot from the usb.
But now it says "marking TSC unstable due to TSC halts in idle" and then on the next line it says "switching to clocksource hpet" and it has been like this for hours.
Any ideas as to what's gone wrong?
The laptop specs are: Intel Core 2 CPU T5600 @ 1833MHz with 1GB of RAM.
Many thanks.
