Hi guys. I have searched the forums; but was unable to find someone with such a similar problem. I am trying to install kubuntu 6.0.6 using an install cd. It goes through 'phase1' of the install process fine. It goes through the grub process; installs grub and then prompts me to take out the cd and reboot. I do that and then I see the 'grub menu'. I chose 'Ubuntu, kernal 2.6.15-21-386' and I am on my way then. Btw; I see my XP pro listed in there too.
This is where things get weird. It goes to a black screen with 'kubuntu' logo and a progress bar. Then it does the 'loading esesentional drivers. mounting root.. configuring network.. hp image.. blah blah blah'.. all those end up as 'OK'. Then it again comes back to a black screen with a 'kubuntu' written in the middle. There is a progress bar underneath the big 'kubuntu' sign. After this; nothing happens for the longest time. The progress bar does not move. The only thing I see after a 'looong time' is a message that says 'restarting system log'. That is it..
Any ideas? If I log in using the 'recovery' mode; I can login using my newly created account. So the problem seems to be with the 'Windowing' system??
Thanks!
