[Bug 1066661] [NEW] downloaded disk will not auto-run on startup.

[Jan Van Hess]

Public bug reported:

I have Ubuntu 6.6 on an old hp machine, formerly a win2000 machine.
  No matter the boot sequence settings for start-up, only 6.6 runs.  The Downloaded install disk will not initiate installation.

Apparently 6.6 is too old to update, or allow the new version to take
over.

What do I do ?  I am not proficient enough to manually install via the
boot sector.  I cannot even find gparted.
