Hello. I'm not sure what is going on exactly, but I'll try to explain it to the best of my ability. I want to get the Kubuntu 5.10 OS and I downloaded it, the 64-bit verison. I burned it to a cd and then I restarted my computer so I could install Kubuntu. The cd booted and I got to the 1st screen to specify what kind of boot or just to hit enter for regular boot and so I hit enter for a regular boot. The program displays some stuff which is too fast for me to read then it just comes to a blue screen and stops. It does nothing now, and I'm not sure why. I downloaded the iso from somewhere and burned it again but it still didn't work. I know my media is fine because I downloaded and burned, onto the same media, Kubuntu 5.04. Does anybody have any ideas why the install program would goto a blue screen and just freeze like that. Thanks for all the help

You might note that the original post dates from October 2005, when 5-10 (Breezy Badger) was the latest and greatest Kubuntu. Although I must admit to a warm spot in my heart for Breezy. I would certainly never consider using it, now. Especially not for an AMD-64 box (although, I did use it for that, then). If you're running a server, (or a lot of desktops) in a mission critical environment, use 6-06 (Dapper Drake), the long term support release. For a single user user desktop, use 7-04 (Feisty Fawn). All of which can be found in both CD and DVD versions at this site (http://www.kubuntu.org/download.php).
