Hi all,
I can't seem to be able to get Ubuntu 11.10 instillation to boot off an Ubuntu CD (the CD isn't faulty as I've used it on lots of other PC's). I'm also relatively confident that there's no hardware problems with the laptop as it's designed to run Windows 2000 which uses just as many resources as Ubuntu (from experience) so I'm kaffuffled, if that's the right word, and if it's in the English dictionary. Comletely Kaffuffled.
Any replies at all would be much appreciated, even any random suggestions you can throw at me other than to get better, more new hardware (as I do have, I'm fixing this as a birthday present for somebody :lolflag: )
Thanks very much
P.S I'm uploading a full video of the boot sequence and stuff in 720p in about an hour so you can see what's happening (which is alien to me) in detail.
