| Charles-Andre | Hi guys, I've tried all the afternoon to install Ubuntu from a live CD on my laptop. It takes half an hour to load, and when I double-click the "Install" icon, after like 10 minutes, it freezes without bringing the installer GUI. I checked CD-ROM integrity and RAM, everything's OK. My laptop has 256MB RAM. What is causing the problem? Thanks. | 02:51 |
|---|---|---|
| pochu | Charles-Andre: what ubuntu version? | 02:52 |
| Charles-Andre | pochu: Edgy Eft | 02:53 |
| defendguin | Charles-Andre: whats your processor speed? | 02:53 |
| defendguin | cd-rom speed | 02:54 |
| Charles-Andre | 1.7Ghz | 02:54 |
| defendguin | celeron? | 02:54 |
| Charles-Andre | Pentium M | 02:54 |
| defendguin | are you sure it takes half an hour to load? | 02:55 |
| defendguin | that seems a bit excessive | 02:55 |
| defendguin | maybe the media is bad | 02:55 |
| Charles-Andre | defendguin: Yes, I can tell because I was watching on the TV a program that takes half an hour, and it was still loading... | 02:56 |
| defendguin | and with 256 MB maybe you should be using xubuntu | 02:56 |
| Charles-Andre | Thanks. Can I install from the terminal? | 02:58 |
| Charles-Andre | (I don't want to launch the live CD) | 02:58 |
| defendguin | lol | 02:58 |
| defendguin | it takes about 2 min to launch the live CD here | 02:58 |
| Charles-Andre | Sort of powering on the computer with the CD-ROM in, and starting a text-based installation... Is it possible? | 02:59 |
| defendguin | do you know for sure that the media is good? | 02:59 |
| defendguin | i suppose i haven't tried in forever | 03:00 |
| Charles-Andre | Yes, I checked its integrity | 03:00 |
| defendguin | hmm | 03:00 |
| defendguin | i'm sure the text install option must be on there | 03:02 |
| defendguin | especially on an xubuntu CD because it is meant for people with minimal pcs | 03:02 |
| Charles-Andre | From the live CD, when I click the menu, it takes a minute to pop up | 03:03 |
| defendguin | try the CD on a different computer and see how long it takes | 03:04 |
| Charles-Andre | Let's see... | 03:07 |
| Charles-Andre | defendguin: On another laptop with 256MB RAM, it's working fine, the installer GUI shows up after around 30 secs. | 03:20 |
| defendguin | dude i think something is wrong with that laptop or that rom drive | 03:21 |
| Charles-Andre | defendguin: ok thanks. | 03:22 |
| defendguin | i wonder if you could try and external cdrom drive on that laptop | 03:22 |
| Charles-Andre | :( | 03:24 |
| Charles-Andre | defendguin: Is it possible to boot off the network from a CD-ROM located on a samba share? | 03:25 |

| defendguin | can't say for sure | 03:26 |
| defendguin | i used to install of a nfs share with fedora | 03:29 |
| defendguin | ftp share even | 03:29 |
| Charles-Andre | defendguin: Ok, I'm downloading the alternate build... | 03:31 |

| Kismet | Hi All! To update information on LaptopTesting, should I use the new LaptopTestingTemplate or change the layout of the TestingPage to looks like this page: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/FujitsuAmiloM7440 | 03:42 |
| Kismet | I prefer to change the layout of the page so that people will know that they can use the laptop better with some version than other, also some tips to configure the laptop can be index and become available for user that has not moved to newest version | 03:43 |
