[16:29] <liminal>  im trying to install ubuntu lts 10.4 desktop 32bit, but it crashes
[16:29] <liminal> it offers me a desktop session to investigate
[16:29] <liminal> ive tried installing using the text console,  it finishes succesfully with no errors
[16:29] <liminal> but upon restarting all i see is a flashing -
[16:30] <liminal> nothing happens
[17:27] <CarlFK> x64 10.04 cd - I boot, let the defaults timeout, it leaves me with a login dialog - I have no clue what the user/pw is.  is that expected?
