Public bug reported:

Also, I'm running this on a USB Startup Disk.
When upgrading, I got this message:
update-initramfs is disabled since running on a live CD
Is there any way for this to be fixed even if I am running Ubuntu off of a USB?
If not, is there any way for me to run Ubuntu 8.10, or any other OS off of a 
USB so as not to have this error?
I also saw the updater install some other Linux image: 
"linux-image-2.6.27-9-generic"; will the above error affect this from 
installing successfully?
I'm a noob in Linux. Actually, I only just recently got acquired the Live CD 
image about a few weeks ago.

I'm also having a lot of trouble with the screen resolution, which is
stuck at max. 800x600. I've been tinkering with xorg.conf as in some
forums, but those efforts were absolutely fruitless. I need help on
this, though Ubuntu 8.10 is in a USB.

I don't really want to install Ubuntu into the computer because it's a
family computer. If these don't work, will these work if I installed
Ubuntu 8.10 into the computer with Wubi?

Thanks,
            Pagan
