Hello,
I am new member of ubuntu user lists. I got around 50 cd's of
ubuntu 5.10 for me as well as friends and classmates.
Apart from this i'm also using RedHat 7.2 , It is working perfectly on my
system.
Now problem is this that i'm not be able to install ubuntu 5.10 on my
system.
*My System specification is as follows,
* Intel P-III 667 MHz.
* RAM : 64 MB SDRAM
* HDD : 20 GB IDE drive from Seagate.
* CDROM : LG CDROM 52x
*
Now when I tried to install ubuntu on my system it goes all well till the
partitionar, but when the partitionar start it ones complete 100% mark then
screen goes blank for few(3-4) seconds and partitionar again starts and goes
upto 52% mark and stuck there. I can't understand what is the problem.
please some one help me I'm eagrly waiting to use ubuntu on my system.
I'm also including few last lines of "messages" , "syslog" & "partman" files
from /var/log directory.
