Comments/Problems:

I got the CD to boot correctly. After choosing Install Ubuntu (the first option), the installer shows a progress bar. After the progress bar, the screen displayes test after test ( with [OK] after each - except what looks like network detection stuff that gives me a 'directory' not found error).
After the list of tests/checks is finished, the screen turns black and sits idle. I have left it for about 25 minutes now and still nothing.

Any* ideas? Hope you can help. I am using the full ISO of ubuntu i downloaded last night which i burned to a CD.

Thanks in advance for the help
