Just finished putting together a new computer. Everything powers up and I load the Ubuntu6. CD and tell it to do the normal install and it gets so far and then it takes me to a black screen and all it says is: Uncompressing Linux ... Ok, booting the kernel. And it just stays stuck there forever.
Other things to consider if it helps. It's an SONY SATA DVD-REWRITER, also tried booting with Knoppix and with no luck. I tried installing Windows XP and that worked seemingly fine (Maybe this fact rules out a hardware defect?) Please, please help! I really want my new ubuntu computer to work. Here are the system specs if that helps: CPU= INTEL PENTIUM D 3.2 GHz 935 LGA 775 Motherboard= INTEL DG965RY video = ONBOARD hard drive = 160 SAMSUNG SATA2 3GBPS memory = Kingston ValueRAM Series 2 512 MB DDR2-667 DIMM Memory Kit, INFORM ME TO [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Installer (Live CD) Stuck at "Uncompressing Linux ...
