This screen comes up (big slew of text, looks not quite similar, I've only seen Debian distros boot up.. this looked different.. but similar lol) after I hit Install Ubuntu WITH the changed parameters Skatingn330 suggested changing, as well as in Safe Graphics Mode.

I'm using the 64bit version - the system has a AMD 2200 Phenom Quad Core 64bit processor.

I'm hoping the disk burned correctly.  The MacBook I burned it off of checked the integrity of the disk after the ISO image burn and it checked out.  It went straight into the new computer's CD-ROM drive.  Ran a successful memory test if that means anything through the CD lol.

It could still be a bad copy I'm guessing.  I might be able to get my hands on a copy of XP, then I may not have as much problem installing Ubuntu as a second boot option.  I have no clue really, never set up a dual-boot system.  Just worked with XP and OSX.


Thanks for the response :)

Hey, all.  Sorry to resurrect such an old thread but I could use some help.  This is my first time dealing with Ubuntu and a completely blank (out of the box) hard drive.  The BIOS seems to recognize everything, currently has my WD SATA drive as primary slave or SATA 1... one of those... primary slave may be the CD-ROM drive. Anyways,  I've tried everything I can find, flashed the mobo with the most current BIOS version.  Furthest I got was to this screen and it just stops... currently using the previous poster's advise and trying to install in safe graphics mode.  Here's the screen it just hits a wall at:





Any help is much appreciated!

Not using the other stuff, just installing with safe graphics mode I get ACPI: Expecting a [Reference] package element, found type 0
Also, I get Apature beyond 4gigs - ignoring (comes up and off real quick just before the ACPI error, it's close to that).
