Linux Install I am trying to install a Linux distro (Ubuntu) o my laptop in place of the existing Windows XP Pro. For some reason this is taking forever and going nowhere. Is the laptop too out of date?

    Sorry for the post. If I would have checked I would have realized my problem was simply too little memory on the system. Will upgrade and try again. Thanks anyway.

Simple solution (if I had paid attention). The linux loader (Ubuntu) uses more memory than I currently have loaded on the machine. I wasn't aware I was that underloaded memory-wise. Watch your loader. It will usually tell you what it needs in the way of RAM.
