Error msg on trying to install Ubuntu 10.4 alongside Windows
Acer Intel Atom 1.6GHz with Windows XP Pro:
I have tried to install Ubuntu alongside Windows but without success. I can confirm the CD is good as I installed it fine on my Asus EeePc that was running Xandros before. On the Acer I see the following message: error: the initrd is too big [O.729108] kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: unable to mount rootfs on unknown...un-block (8,1) loading/casper/intrd.lz... ...ready None of which I am afraid means anything to me, otherwise I may have been able to do a bit more of a search within the forum. If anyone has any ideas and can explain any possible solution as can be understood by an idiot I would be very grateful. I am enjoying playing with Ubuntu on the netbook and would be very happy to get it up and running on the home PC. Thanks! ZombyWoof |

EDIT: For this error you are getting, check the BIOS options for your hard drive if you can. Try changing SATA to IDE if that option is available. See post #6 in this thread: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...-8-1-a-646063/ |
