<DIV><PRE style="WORD-WRAP: break-word">Hello there,

I just tried installing the latest version of Ubuntu on my Intel P4 / Abit IC7-G combination with 1 CD-RW & DVD-RW & 2 SATA-Disks, but the installer always complains that no cd-drive can be found. I then tried the latest debian-installer cd... and it worked fine! Fedora etc all work fine - just ubuntu doesn't :(

Does anyone know a solution for this?
