My advice to users with the Intel I855 graphics chipset is NOT to even try
Ubuntu 10.04 lucid,
but to wait until a fix is released. (After all, Karmic is supported for six
more months, Hardy for
one more year.)
If you still really want to try 10.04, I suggest using the alternate,
text-based installer. This
will allow you to install the system without problems. When the time comes to
reboot
form the HD, THEN hold the shift key, get into the grub menu and select
recovery mode.
Incidentally, I did exactly this on my Thinkpad X40. I am now running
2.6.34-020634rc6.
I am retired, so I have time to waste!
