Hi I am new to using open source OS like Ubuntu. Right now this is the only OS availible to me. Anyways, when I try to install ubuntu, the ubuntu logo comes up, the cursor thing moves back and forth for a while then this message comes up:

BusyBox V1.1.3 (Debain 1: 1.1.3-5ubuntu2) Built-in shell (ash)

enter 'help' for a list of built in commands
(initramfs)_ |

This happened with the cd that i downloaded and the one that I bought from bestbuy- I dont think its the cd. Now the pc I am installing it on is custom built with an ati graphics card (does that even matter?) I can get into the bios and mess around just fine. Please help me.
