I had the same problem with mi little sisters Dell Latitude C600... There's no floppy drive either, but it's possible to add a floppy drive instead of the cd drive...
I was using the ubuntu 7.04 official release... But when I waited a few minutes it started to move pass the error and continued the livecd... But I can tell you if the rest of the livecd works :) it doesn't seem have enough ram to run Ubuntu from livecd, perhaps I'll try with Xubuntu... -- [feisty] installer reports I/O error dev fd0 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/97306 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
