Ok, here's the full run through.
I was on Ubuntu 9.10 and there were some problems with nautilus so I saw that
Lucid Lynx Alpha was out. I don't use this computer for work so it wasn't vital
for me to have a working a computer so I downloaded it off the website and ran
a MD5 sum check. It ran successfully. I burned it to a USB and had no problems.
I then booted up to the USB, then after about 2 minutes it displayed: "init:
ureadahead-other main process (1515) terminated with status 4" and "init:
ureadahead-other main process (1516) terminated with status 4" and hung there
for all eternity (I waited an hour.) I then tried many different times, each
with the same symptoms. No boot splash or GRUB came up, but the first menu did
("Install Ubuntu","Try Ubuntu without ..","Memory Test", etc.) I have tried all
the ones which try to boot up but none work. I was expecting it to boot up.
I then tried it with a CD, and the same thing happens, except that different
numbers came up (lower).
I then downloaded Ubuntu 9.10 again, reinstalled and it worked fine. Will try
10.04 when the beta comes out. (It might be out already.)
I can't use "Help -> Report a Problem" because I'm not actually on a usable OS!
