I have given up on Ubuntu. Maybe next time. I expect to have
another server in a few weeks with the same configuration.
I'll try it then as I expect to not have time constraints as
I do now with this system. I have installed CentOS with no
apparent problems.
I believe 6.06 was timing out on something as it would stop
at various points and go forward a bit and stall again.
After over four hours and three attempts of this I gave up.
If any one has insight into this our wants additional details
feel free to ask.
