Could you describe exactly how you "burned the iso image" ?<br>
Did you copy the iso to a disk or did you use a CD burner that has a
burn<br>
iso inage function?</blockquote>
</div>
<div><br>
Used Nero - burn an image file to disc function - <br>
The first time at highest speed. After reading the Launchpad reports
(see Steve's reply), I burned another disc at 4x. I'm trying the disc
burned at the slower speed now.</div>

Update: No joy. Same errors (SQUASHFS and I/O errors).<br>
<br>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</blockquote>
<div>Update 2: I shut off the splash to see the messages - as soon as
the boot sequence loads squashfs (dated October, 2007) the install
borks - sarts throwing the same errors I've seen before. I think there
is something wrong with the 8.04 iso on the Ubu site. Does anyone know
where I can get an iso of 7.10? If that would work, I can always do the
dist-upgrade to get to the latest release...<br>
</div>
</div>

The ISO works fine. Check the MD5 hash of your ISO... and compare to
what the site says.<br>
<br>
If you have the 8.04.1 i368 desktop, your MD5 hash should be :
c69e34e92d5402d1b87e6babc739f774<br>
<br>
You may be having other problems. How much RAM does your system have?<br>
<br>
Have you tried downloading the "alternate" CD? Works with smaller, and
sometimes more exotic machines.<br>
<br>
Gilles.</div></blockquote><div><br>Gilles<br>I have the 8.04 i386 desktop iso. I'm currently installing win on the box, just to see if it's hardware. This same error has been reported in launchpad (and apparently hasn't been dealt with yet, since I read a few instances of this). I've the various workarounds (pcmcia=nomsi, ide=nodma, remove the splash) but no joy there either. I'll check the md5 of the iso file on my other ubu box and see what that brings, although i've burned three different downloads from three different mirrors, and they all say they have defective files on the cd - using different burners. It's beginning to make me wonder about the iso being distributed.<br>
<br>The machine is a Dell Dimension 4500 with 1GB of RAM and a 80GB IDE drive. At this point it's a stock machine that was running 7.10 until the drive crashed.<br><br>I haven't tried any other iso's since at the moment I'm out of blanks... :)<br>
