 Unexpected exit with status 0x0009
Hi everyone, I'm VERY new to UBUNTU and looking for some help in setting it up. I've downloaded version 10.4 and had the following message come up when trying to install and/or boot directly from the disk?

 

If anyone is brave enough to walk me trough some install steps I'd really appreciate the help.

I have a system that will be dedicated to UBUNTU (No dual boot config wanted)

Kind regards,

Shep

hi

 have you check your disk for errors

hope it helps

1. Reburned the iso onto a new disk
2. Ran the disk check from the CD and nothing out of the ordinary.

I get the prompt screen with options to install, run without installing etc. The Hard disk I have should not really matter if I try and run the 1st option (without installing) shouldnt it?

Would you reccomend I turf 10.4 and find an older version or could my system have hardware compatibility issues perhaps? I've put a post on another forum but no one can help me either?
