Ubuntu 6.06 LTS hangs at Uncompressing Linux...
Greetings,
To start, here are my System Specs:
Dell Latitude D800 Laptop computer
2GHz Pentium processor with Centrino mobile technology
1GB of RAM
60GB hard drive
NVIDIA GeForce FX Go5650 128MB video card
OS: Windows 2000 Professional SP4
VMware Workstation version 5.5.1 build-19175
Situation:
I'm trying to install Ubuntu 6.06 LTS (Dapper Draker) as a guest OS. I'm configuring the virtual machine as follows:
Typical > Linux > Ubuntu > bridged networking > disk size: 4GB > Allocate disk space now
I've used the CD check option in Ubuntu to verify that the install CD is defect free.
The installation completes, reboots, then hangs at:
---
Booting 'Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.15-23-server'
root (hd0,0)
Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0x83
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15-23-server root=/dev/sda1 ro quiet splash
[Linux-bzImage, setup=0x1c00, size=0x16b75f]
initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.15-23-server
[Linux-initrd @ 0xf840000, 0x69f606 bytes]
savedefault
boot
Uncompressing Linux... OK, boot the kernel.
---
Then the system just hangs from there :-(
I'm a newbie to Linux so I'm really not sure how to resolve this problem.
I've had previous versions of Ubuntu installed and running on VMware workstation.
Google searching didn't return much in relation to this specific situation.
Any thoughts?
Thank you for your time,
Nick
