I have just added the following to the Ubuntu forums, after a comment from Recupero who suggested that video cards may be the problem. I should add, that the CD does not continue to be read when the install fails, this suggests that the install is not continuing, and not just that it is not being echo'd to the display.
Ubuntu forum: "My video carddetails: The dmesg gives the following: fb0: Creator atyfb: 3D Rage Pro fb1: ATY Mach64 Interestingly enough, the next line says "rtc_init: no PC rtc found. This is the last message I see when I use boot -p and the install fails. I will add this to the bug. Cheers, Chris." -- sparc64.Installation fails at "Booting Linux..." https://launchpad.net/bugs/50236 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
