I'm guessing you used the live cd? A number of the newer systems don't appear to handle the installer from that cd to well? Someone I think suggested trying for the text install via the live cd. Or you can download the alternate cd which is the same ubuntu minus the live bit. It seems to install fine when the live cd wont James </blockquote></div> first of all, I would like to thank to you James, so how to install via text installation? When I wasn't able to continue with x-window, I entered the console style (text installation) but I do not know what will be the next step of the installation. I do not know the command of Linux. would you mind to guide me in this case. thank you, Eric Jansen
