Try this to install Ubuntu without sight: * Download and burn the live CD for your architecture, either i386 or amd64 depending on if you have a 32-bit or 64-bit processor. I am assuming you know where to get it. Let me know if you need a link. * Insert the CD into your CD drive and start the computer. * Wait for the CD to spin up and then wait about 5 seconds. * Press enter followed by f5, 3 and enter. * To start the live demo, press enter again. Or to start the installer only, press down arrow followed by enter. Happy Ubuntuing, Lorenzo -- Make a change. Make a difference. Obama for America: our time has come! http://www.barackobama.com
