They made PII dual cores?

You need to get into the BIOS and boot from CD, right? What kind of PC do you have? Did you search the web for how to get into the BIOS for that type of PC?

you got it to work on a system that does not meet the minimum requirements!? Ubuntu requires a bare minimum of a 300MHz processor... yours is 233MHz...
