Spec:

Pentium III 733mhz 256k cache
256mb ram
Compaq Smart Array 431 Controller set to RAID0 w/25.9gb=3/9.1gb hd's
System Embedded IDE Controller
SCSI Controller

I have been trying to get Ubuntu 7.10 on that machine for a week now. I
keep getting the same errors and I am not computer savy by no means and
am a noob to Linux.

>From the Ubuntu boot screen I selected "Check CD for Defects" and got
the errors listed below:

[364.283722] ata1.01: Exception Emask 0x0 Sact 0x0 Serr 0x0 action 0x2 Frozen
[364.283771] ata1.01 (BMDMA stat 0x44)
[364.283822] ata1.01: cmd a0/01:00:00:00:00/00:00:00:00:00/b0 tag0 cdb 0x28 d
ata 129024 in
[374.885258]305]349]394]438]482]524]567]610]653] Buffer I/O error on device 
sr0, logical block 329966-329975

The error messege has 10 line to it, I shortened it to one line so I wouldn't 
have to type the whole thing out:
305]349]= [374.885305][374.885349] etc. etc.

I select "Star or Install Ubuntu" from the boot screen it runs through
the process of the checks and there are some [FAIL] messeges on some of
the checks, then it tells me to "hit enter for maintnace or ctrl+D to
continue" When I hit enter I am taken to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and I don't know
how to fix the errors. If I ctrl+D it puts out a bunch of errors and
won't load the OS. Any help will be greatly appreciated.


I forgot to mention that the CD was ordered from Ubuntu, I ordered two
more which are the text based installers. I will check it on another
machine. If there are no errors can you help me installing it on the
machine mentioned.

I am not necessarily going to use that machine as a server, for now
anyways.


I checked the CD and there are no defects on it or with it. i kind of figured 
it was a compatibility issue, so now what do I do?
