Ubuntu 6.10 won't boot up!?
Answer:
Try searching Ubuntu forums if this is a set issue. I don't use Ubuntu, I use Mandriva. Unless I have more information, I couldn't give an account you. I also don't know the inner workings of Ubuntu.
It sounds like to me, you havent isntalled it, but are trying to. It could be a fruitless burn. Before you burn ANY distribution, you must first make sure the md5 match to the iso that you downloaded. If you are using k3b, this is simple to do. Also, make sure you burning near DAO, and you check the box "verify written data". To sum up:
--make sure the md5 sum matches to what be downloaded
--make sure you are using DAO writing
--check "verify written data" in K3B.
These three things will prevent a bleak burn.
Are you sure? Ubuntu takes a long time to boot into the Live compact disc environment.
Maybe your graphics chipset is not supported. Check the Ubuntu website to see if that's the case. (I doubt that's the problem, only throwing it out there.)
It may depend on your processor. Make sure that you are using the right variation of Ubuntu for your processor. If you have a 64-bit processor it may hold some problems booting normal version of ubuntu. Also, the file you downloaded could be corrupted. Try getting a free burned disc from a distributor such as https://shipit.ubuntu.com/ which has seriously of different options.
Stick near it. Ubuntu rocks!
