Re: Gnome and Ubuntu 6.06?

[Jan and Bertil Smark Nilsson <bjsn ozemail com au>]

Thomas,

I've a feeling that you've downloaded the wrong ISO. For what you want to 
do, You'll need the alternate install image from Ubuntu. There, you'll 
also find an installation manual. I suggest you download 
ubuntu-6.06-alternate-i386.iso if you have an Intel processor.

Good luck!
