I have been trying to get Ubuntu 7.10 on that machine for a week now. I keep getting the same errors and I am not computer savy by no means and am a noob to Linux.

From the Ubuntu boot screen I selected "Check CD for Defects" and got the errors listed below:

[364.283722] ata1.01: Exception Emask 0x0 Sact 0x0 Serr 0x0 action 0x2 Frozen
[364.283771] ata1.01 (BMDMA stat 0x44)
[364.283822] ata1.01: cmd a0/01:00:00:00:00/00:00:00:00:00/b0 tag0 cdb 0x28 d
ata 129024 in
[374.885258]305]349]394]438]482]524]567]610]653] Buffer I/O error on device sr0, logical block 329966-329975

The error messege has 10 line to it, I shortened it to one line so I wouldn't have to type the whole thing out:
305]349]= [374.885305][374.885349] etc. etc.

I select "Star or Install Ubuntu" from the boot screen it runs through the process of the checks and there are some [FAIL] messeges on some of the checks, then it tells me to "hit enter for maintnace or ctrl+D to continue" When I hit enter I am taken to root@ubuntu and I don't know how to fix the errors. If I ctrl+D it puts out a bunch of errors and won't load the OS. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
