Four Ubuntu Installations -- ALL FAIL

I'm gong to jump in here and briefly note that I bought an eMachines
desktop for my wife earlier this year and it lasted in our house for
precisely one week. I could not get any version of linux, including
Ubuntu, to install on that machine. I ended up returning it to Best Buy
within the "no questions asked" time period and brought home an HP on
which Ubuntu installed perfectly within 40 minutes of inserting the cd.
I have no idea if the problems I had and the OP are having are related,
but I just decided it wasn't worth my trouble to fight the machine.
