Habari,
My "ndururu's" worth. Is it possible you have a Server Edition cd, not a
desktop one?
@Andrew, how have you been?

I bought a new machine with vista home and I have every intention of using Ubuntu on it. i would like to keep the windows though and have managed to shrink the volume to create an unpartitioned space. When I slot in my ubuntu CD that was mailed to me (version 7.10) and restarted the machine, all I get is a command line. I havent the foggiest idea what to do with it. Info on the net seems to suggest that the live CDs come with an installer but I'm not sure how to get it to fire.
