I suppose it would be helpful if you explained in more detail just
exactly what you are installing, which CD/DVD, etc., etc.

I have Ubuntu Hardy (8.04.2) running on my A21M/384MB RAM/20GB hard
drive. I used the alternate CD to perform the install. Note: I also had
Intrepid (8.10) on this machine, but it seemed that the machine got
slower & slower (no idea why), so I went back to Hardy.
