Error with ubuntu after installation

bennyboy2606 · 25 Jan 2009 at 19:46

Hey, I recently installed Unbuntu in windows, and rebooted to boot into it, but then I was faced with this error message

"Buffer I/O error on device FD0, logical block 0"

I am new to the whole linux/ubuntu scene so have no idea what this means, anyone care to lend a hand?

Thanks
B

Ty, I'll head over there now and then let you know.

Ok i did that, and didn't get that error message, was then presented with a console that didn't do anything apart from tell me to type help for commands, which brought up a lot. Also when I booted back into windows, I had a BSOD and had to reset cmos for it to go away. If it helps, I don't even have a floppy drive.

Hmm, it did the little ubuntu logo and the moving bar for say 5-10 seconds. Added you on msn but your not online
