Hi, I'm a new one here. I am trying to install Ubuntu 11.04 from my USB stick (2GB, FAT32). After I started up the computer I can try the system from my USB stick. But when I tried to insatall the system, after I chose "English" as the language (step 1), I got hanged at step2 "Preparing to install Ubuntu" (no response when I clicked "forward"). I waited for 20 minutes but the installation window didn't go further. I tried two USB sticks but same thing happened. While the installation got hanged up, I was able to open the directories on the desktop, listen to the sample song or even use firefox.

I have no idea what was wrong because I'm a novice. If anyone has any suggeations I appereciate them.
