I have this problem when trying to install using Xubuntu 7.04 Desktop CD. The hard drive in the laptop is 40 GB ATA/100, model ST9402112A according to GParted live CD. The drive has Windows XP installed and had Xubuntu 6.10 next to Windows before I tried to install 7.04. The installer does not get ahead from the "detecting file systems" phase, where it runs long time. Finally the Application menu disappears and file manager windows are opened for different partitions. So I can not install the OS. I have no idea, how could I install the kernel update since I am installing using the live CD. The problem does not exist with every ATA hard disk; I installed Xubuntu 7.04 using the same CD successfully to an old desktop PC.
