Does the Vista start OK? I know that Ubuntu 8.0.4 can be installed in an empty partition in Windows. Is that how you installed or did you install the old fashion way i.e. booting from the installation CD and running the installation? Also, are you sure the installation completed successfully?

Am doin it old fashion way(boot from cd).Wat happens is this. The installation starts fine, I select the language then select the Install option an the progress bar starts. On reaching full,messages appear on the screen saying sth about an I/O error. There multiple messages go on then the screen goes blank and then this 'X' comes up and thats where am left. As for the Recovery Disc creator,there isnt any. What's there is the Toshiba DVD Creator. On 4/15/09, henry kamabi <hkamabi@gmail.com> wrote:

First thing, many Toshibas dont come with recovery cd's. U might have to get one separately - at an additional cost, according to the site. So before you go further, boot to Vista and backup the drivers. Might come in handy Secondly, how did u partition your machine?
