im not sure what is going wrong, ubuntu 7 loads from disk but is real sluggish. i click the install icon, a few minutes later a white box pops up titled 'install', and does nothing after that. i have it on safe graphics mode but the pointer sometimes disappears or moves very sluggish.
i think that maybe the cd drive is bad and dirty, i was wondering if i could just get ubuntu to directly install from disk. unless the problem is the computer not being able to handle it
trying to install on a emachine w2646
CPU Type: 2.60GHz Intel Celeron
Hard Drive Bus: Ultra ATA/100
Standard Memory: 256 MB (removable)
Maximum Memory: 2.0 GB
Celeron 2.6GHz Processor / 256MB RAM / 40GB Hard Drive
also operating system crash and recovery disks are damaged, so there is no OS on this machine at all
thanks for you help :)
