I am trying to install kubuntu 8.04 into completely new computer. MB is gigabyte GA-MA78GM-S2H and has 3 sata disks (to be raided) one pata (for os) and usb dvd player.
I first tried the alternate cd and everything went fine until the first boot; it just wouldn't even try to boot, bios runs up to the point of handing over the control but there's no grub or linux messages.
Next I decided to try reinstall with the normal cd, that just hanged to 24% so I tried that "check cd"-option and got screenfull of "rejecting i/o to offline device" errors => stripped the sata cables off => lots errors about usb & hub (err -110) => took out the usb-dvd and hooked old ide cdrom instead.
Now the **BEEP** thing just reboots about every minute or two.
What can possibly be wrong with my setup?
