Ubuntu 8.10 & 9.04 come in two flavors, std. & AMD64. My system
happens to be an AMD 64 bit system and the std. version hung on it (the
AMD64 version works fine.) I believe that there was some comment on the
Ubuntu site for 8.10 that the AMD64 should be tried if there was a
problem with the std. version. Another system at school, one that I did
not expect to be either Intel or AMD 64 bit (but may have been) would
only boot correctly from the AMD64 CD.
Just my $0.25 worth ($0.02 adjusted for inflation).

Hi everyone,
I am trying to install Ubuntu 9.04 on another computer and it
is giving me a lot of trouble. The computer boots from the install
cdrom like normal. Then, I select install and it will start the process
and then it will hang on me. I have tried installing Debian; with
Debian it did almost the whole install and then hung when it tried to
install the graphics driver.
The computer has a Quadro FX 3000 graphics card. I believe that this is
the cause of my problems. On the hello screen that is loaded from the
installation disk there are F4 options. I tried using "graphics safe
mode" and it did not work. I would like to try, "use driver update
disk" next. So, how do I make this disk for my graphics card and how do
I use it for the installation process?
Thanks in advance for your replies. - MatthewMPP
