To make room for EMC, the Windows-based demos and programs were removed from the CD. The browser wasn't, so it runs, doesn't find anything to show you, and goes away.

One additional thing to try is to download a stock Ubuntu CD (from <http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu>) and boot from that. Ideally, you'd get version 6.06 LTS desktop edition, since that's what the EMC2 liveCD is based on. Burn that and boot from it, and see if that works. If not, check the Ubuntu forums, as was already suggested, for tips on your hardware. You can also try a newer distribution, such as 7.04. If 6.06 LTS and EMC2 don't boot, but 7.04 does, that helps us to decide when to change the distribution EMC2 is based on. >Thank you, > >Chris Mason > > Thanks. Please keep trying to get this to work - we'd like to help, but don't know if it's "our problem" or "Ubuntu's problem" (or a hardware problem or a user error) yet :) - Steve ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
