Please bottom post on this list. Thanks :-0

Ubuntu uses launchpad to report bugs. Here are a few links you may find
useful:

Ubiquity is the package used in the liveCD install CD/DVD.

Given that you had issues installing 9.10 to 25 machines, I am wondering
exactly how you did these installs. Can you please detail?
Your answer will be helpful in determining if the issue is with Ubiquity
(liveCD/DVD), the AlternateCD, or some other installation method.

I also wonder about:

I see no reason why installing 9.10 on your machines, removing the
power, and then finding your bios reverting to default would be an issue
with 9.10. I suspect that the issue might be with the
machines/environment. Again, if you can provide additional details then
perhaps someone can help you further (including filing a bug report).

In the interim, you might also want to have a look at these to see if
you can spot a similar bug report/issue:

<https://launchpad.net/+search?field.text=Lenovo+ThinkCentre+%2Bkarmic&field.actions.search=Search>

https://launchpad.net/+search?field.text=NetVista
Note: you can do similar searches on NetVista for '9.10' and 'karmic' in
the same way I did it for ThinkCentre.
  The searches pretty much are the same as google (as are the
help.ubuntu.com searches), to you can try to narrow the search down to
something more specific. However, in order for anyone on this list to
assist further you'll need to provide more details.
