I downloaded Kubuntu and burned it on a cd, but when I press "Start or Install Kubuntu", a dialog box appears saying "Error reading boot CD."

 

[JCK]

Are you sure you downloaded the right image? Maybe you have an AMD processor.

 

[The Arif]

No, I have an Intel Celeron processor.

 

[JCK]

Weird, try burning the image again, use another brand of blank discs

Wouldn't make a difference. Sounds like it's a bad burn, these things happen.

Arif: Try re-burning and this time use "verify data" to be sure the burn was correct.

 

[The Arif]

Also, I downloaded the Kubuntu 6.10 from www.kubuntu.org

Not sure if that's the right version to use.

 

[The Arif]

If it's just that, I'll buy tomorrow a couple of blank disks and try again. I burned this one using Infra Recorder. Will try tomorrow with Nero.

Better yet buy a box of 5 cd+rw's.

 

[The Arif]

Yeah, that's better I suppose.

As for the video drivers, I went to the kubuntu channel on mirc and I was told to write xorg-driver-flgrx in the terminal.

More like something like:

sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-flgrx

(I think.)

I'll try both when I install kubuntu.

Arif, try selecting "Check md5 sums" at the boot menu. Or maybe the option's called "Check CD for defects", I don't remember.

Who is also excited for a new Linux user to come?

 

[Martin]

This place is amazing, first we had the Firefox wave, we started it and lots of people jumped on it. That was a relatively small move compared to switching the OS, but now we have a whole movement for that too.
