Hello,
I'm trying to install Ubuntu 10.04 on a Compaq Deskpro. The problem is that when I enter the CD and it boots, the Ubuntu initial boot screen shows up (this one) and when I choose one of the options the PC reboots, then it asks me too choose again and again (this screen shows continuously and each time I choose one and press enter the PC reboots). I've set it up to boot from CD in the BIOS settings. However, this doesn't happen with the Ubuntu CD only - it happens with other CDs aswell, such as Knoppix - it reboots before the kernel loads and such. I guess this is not really Ubuntu/Linux related but I don't know where to post it. The PC itself has windows XP installed but it's unable to boot it because of missing ntfs.sys (I tried fixing it with the windows CD/recovery console, it just doesn't work (the CD is missing another files, just a mess..)). Any help is appreciated, thanks.
