Hi folks - I'm a newbie to linux and this forum so please forgive any apparent stupid questions.
I downloaded the 8.04 iso and tried the installation under windows option on the cd. Everything seemed to install correctly. When I rebooted, I get the loader screen with a choice of windows xp or ubuntu. However, the ubuntu choice comes up with a "file not found" error.
I installed Ubuntu on a 2nd hard drive. My guess is that it's something with the boot loader or boot.ini not being set correctly.
I was looking for some information from anyone who has succesfully done this type of install. Would I be beter off just resizing the primary disk partition and installing conventionally?
Hardware is an ASUS MOBO AMD64 proc and 4 SATA drives.
