Hello guys, I've just installed Ubuntu 10.04 into a 20 gig partition on my Acer Ferrari One Netbook. It worked perfectly, the installer, ran it from a USB so it was really quick, a great experience.
Sadly from there on it only got worse, once I had removed the drive from the system, and rebooted, it would pass GRUB2, then load Ubuntu, and on the last bit where you can see the mouse on the loading screen, the Ubuntu login sound plays, and the mouse works, and then the end of the Ubuntu theme repeats about 4 times, sounded like rap- but better. Then the machine froze on that loading screen with the mouse on display, immobile. I couldn't even turn caps lock on, which is usually a dead certainty something has gone wrong. I wish I could give you more information, but I honestly can't, that is all that happens. No errors on load, it just crashes. Machine spec: AMD Athlon X2 L310 1.2GHz 2GB DDR2 250GB Toshiba drive ATI 3200HD graphics - I think this is most likely the culprit. (my opinion) Windows 7 in most of it, 20 gig for Ubuntu Any help would be really appreciated, I can't wait to get stuck in :) Thanks, Kris Douglas, NODE Computer Systems Web Hosting, Design and Server Administration, Technical Support & Computer Construction T. 01200438449 M. 07728574285 -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
