I downloaded the Ubuntu Studio DVD ISO from the site directly. I copied the ISO to a DVD by mounting the ISO and doing a disc to disc copy.
I currently have windows xp pro installed. The disc boots, goes to the Ubuntu Studio installation screen. It intially asks what language, i pick English. Then i select install.
The screen goes black and looks like DOS (for lack of a better description) and i start getting errors.
A list of them; mainly in pairs like so;
end_request: I/O error dev sr0
buffer I/O error on device sr0
The above is not exact, its prefaced by some numbers and also followed by sectors and numbers.
Just curious if there is some known issue that would cause this, if i am not following the install procedure correctly, or if this is some weird error.
As a note, XP is currently installed and active, do i need to format the drive first before installation or can i reformat from the installation?
Also the drive i am using may be problematic itself, i may try swapping it out for another drive.
Any input would be great, thanks.
