Re: Update on my problem with starting Ubuntu

[Jude DaShiell <jdashiel shellworld net>]

Why not try getting to the boot line and typing: linux 
ks=http://cwelug.org/~rwcitek/ubuntu/ks.cfg don't hit the return after you 
type that either, hit the space bar and then hit f5 hit down arrow 3 times 
and hit enter key twice and have your computer connected to the internet. 
Had ubuntu been able to partition and format my hard disk this probably 
would have worked here and what it should do in about a day's time 
seriously go away from it for a day and leave the computer alone is to 
turn the accessibility options on and install ubuntu onto your hard drive. 
Since the accessibility options were on as grub was updated in the install 
theoretically those should be preserved and you may next morning boot up a 
talking ubuntu.
