Hello all,
I've been resurrecting old machines with ubuntu and ubuntu server for a while now, but on my latest project, I've run into an error that I've never come across before. I'm trying to install ubuntu server 16.04 onto a Compaq Prosignia 740 server with a live disk. The image I am using is the i386 network installer directly from Ubuntu's website, and I burnt the image to a cd+r using InfraRecorder at 10x write speed.
The disk spools up just fine and drops me at the Ubuntu installation options screen, and when I select Install and hit enter it looks like it's going to run just fine. However, after about ten seconds, the code below is displayed and the process stops. Like I said, I've never run into this before, so if anyone could help me understand what is causing the error or even just what the code means I would greatly appreciate it. I have a feeling that it's a problem with the way I'm writing the disk image, but I could be totally wrong on that. Thanks!
