Question #60362 on Ubuntu changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/60362
Raini Haynes requested for more information: Been trying to install Ubuntu 8.10 for 2 weeks (to no avail). I keep the error that something must be wrong with my CD/DVD or hard drive. So .. I bought a new 500GB HD and still got the same error. Then I disabled my primary HD (from the BIOS) and installed Ubuntu from the second drive but got the same error as I did with the first drive. Next, i tried installing Ubuntu using my USB flash drive and got the same message that there is a problem with my CDC/DVD or Hard drive. I have read alot of Ubunty forums and saw this one that tells me to go to the terminal and type lspci. I did it and got the following information. 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 82925X/XE Memory Controller Hub (rev 04) 00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82925X/XE PCI Express Root Port (rev 04) 00:1c.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) PCI Express Port 1 (rev 03) 00:1c.1 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) PCI Express Port 2 (rev 03) 00:1d.0 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) USB UHCI #1 (rev 03) 00:1d.1 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) USB UHCI #2 (rev 03) 00:1d.2 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) USB UHCI #3 (rev 03) 00:1d.3 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) USB UHCI #4 (rev 03) 00:1d.7 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) USB2 EHCI Controller (rev 03) 00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801 PCI Bridge (rev d3) 00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FR (ICH6/ICH6R) LPC Interface Bridge (rev 03) 00:1f.1 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) IDE Controller (rev 03) 00:1f.2 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82801FR/FRW (ICH6R/ICH6RW) SATA Controller (rev 03) 00:1f.3 SMBus: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) SMBus Controller (rev 03) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc R423 UK [Radeon X800SE (PCIE)] 01:00.1 Display controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon R423 UK (PCIE) [X800 SE] (Secondary) 02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5751 Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express (rev 01) 04:01.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB Audigy (rev 04) 04:01.1 Input device controller: Creative Labs SB Audigy Game Port (rev 04) 04:01.2 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Creative Labs SB Audigy FireWire Port (rev 04) 04:03.0 Modem: Intel Corporation FA82537EP 56K V.92 Data/Fax Modem PCI (rev 04) 04:07.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Texas Instruments TSB43AB23 IEEE-1394a-2000 Controller (PHY/Link) Im really at a lost and cannot figure out what to do.
