Problem durring Ubuntu 8.10 installation start
 
Hello everybody, today I decided to change my OS on ubuntu (now I have windows XP pro) but not everything is as easy as I thot. I ordered original ubuntu cd and they sent me one by mail, I putted it in my cd-rom, restarted pc, cd booted and screen shown up with few choices: Install Ubuntu, Test Memory, Set ubuntu without installation and some other things, so I pressed Install Ubuntu button, loading screen appeared and orange line was sliding trough the line, passed couple of minutes and it froze just at very left of the slide track :D it froze for few minutes and 2 ugly lines appeared one was green (totally non-graphical) it looked like some kind of lag, like cut on screen and right next up to it was blue line, it looked like it was made from some words but I couldnt read them because they were unreadable, it stuck and there was nothing I could do except restart, I tried to install trought windows on different partition, it installs and when I log into to it loading screen appears and it stops at the same place with same effect. IF ANYBODY KNOWS HOW TO FIX THIS PROBLEM PLEASE RESPOND

i guess this looks like a IRQ or ACPI issue
just issue these extra startup commands in the boot loader

acpi=off pci=routerirq nofirewire nopcmcia vga=normal

and if things work, then, based on your need, you can enable firewire/pcmcia one by one to check if it hangs the system.
