Since late April, I've
Loaded 9.04 onto an old laptop as a total installation.
Turned the laptop off and when re-started had problem errors with ntdlr (or similar) missing. Took me 3 weeks to sort that out after I had discovered the original Toshiba rescue discs.
New windows installation upto SP2.
I cannot, now, get my laptop to boot from cd; it insists on loading windows.....
I do not want (really) to install as a virtual installation alongside windows using wubi (too much like hard work LOL)....
I've burned 5 cds and 1 dvd and none of them will boot.
Disc drive will read each of them (except 2 that I burned as boot discs).
Ubuntu menu gives me options, but only the 'help with cd boot' menu option works - and that fails to deliver the necessary extra files at 99% of installation.....
