Are there any troubleshooting videos you recommend in case you run into trouble when installing?

Mine went to a black screen and printed errors like this
Buffer I/O error fd()

That particular error means that during boot Ubuntu is probing for a flash drive on your system that doesn’t exist. I’m guessing you have a laptop with a removable floppy drive. You need to boot from the live cd and edit your config files. How to do that depends on what version of Ubuntu you are running. Are you running 9.04 or 9.10?

@quesomanrulz
8.04 is the version I’m using.
And I’m not doing it on a laptop I’m doing it on my pc

Ok, so long story short….I have a PC that I removed Windows XP on when I had no concept of PCs, got an isntallation disk, put windows back on, ran like shit because of the lack of drivers. Did nothing about it, went and got a new PC. Now I’m into to PCs, can I take my old driver less, Windows XP (1g Ram), and simply install this on it and have it run fine?

4:40 when I click the install button, instead of going to the orange Ubuntu loading screen, it goes to a solid black screen and hangs there. Can anyone offer any support?
