> neither GRUB nor LILO were able to finish installing. On the end I gave

> After installation I encountered three main problems:
> - - obvious problem with Radeon 9600 and DRI, I'm reading the list
> - - can't switch to vc using Ctrl Alt FnX (F1,F2, etc.) - does it mean
> these consoles are not used in Ubuntu?
> - - can't add user to samba:
> sudo smbpasswd -a kerka produces ask for password, but when I write it
> (and for the second time the same), it finishes with no message and no
> file /etc/samba/smbpasswd is created.

> Any hints to the last two problems?
