Hi

I'm trying to install Kubuntu 8.04 using an alternate cd.

The box is an old Compaq deskpro 500mhz, 256mb, 20gb disk.

The installation goes fine until the select and install software stage. An error saying an installation step has failed pops up, at different stages each time I try to install.

I have the cd for defects before installing and have also checked the md5 against the iso on the server.

I have also tried livecd but it just hangs on a black screen(after the loading bar).

Please help.

Chris
