very intense. I'v tried to install ubuntu with the Live CD for 8.04 and 8.04.1 
(both i386) on my SATA2 drive and I always get the Message:
-------
The installer encountered an error copying files to the hard disk:

[Errno 5] Input/output error

This particular error is often due to a faulty CD/DVD disk or drive, or
a faulty hard disk. It may help to clean the CD/DVD, to burn the CD/DVD
at a lower speed, to clean the CD/DVD drive lens (cleaning kits are
often available from electronics suppliers), to check whether the hard
disk is old and in need of replacement, or to move the system to a
cooler environment.

I redownloaded the ISO several times, checked the MD5 right after the download 
and MD5'ed the burned CD (burned at 4x). Everything seemed to be allright, but 
this message always occured - around 69%-73%.
-------

It seems to have no effect wether I choose EXT3, ReiserFS, create swap
partition yes/no, formating the root partition on console or whatever.

I managed to install Ubuntu 7.04 (feisty fawn) from an old Live CD - no
Problem. So my HD must be allright too. As I dig around in forums,
people seemed to solve this by chance (trying different CDR's etc.). I
couldn't find a real solution for this.

My system: Intel Core 2 Duo, MSI P31 Neo-F, 2GB RAM, XpertVision Radeon
HD 2600XT, Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 ST3250410AS.
