I'm trying to install Ubuntu 14.04, which I just downloaded, 32 bit, onto an old P4 machine with Win7 currently installed.
I've tried alongside and I've tried sole install. Can't do either.
It all seems to proceed so incredibly slowly.
And it stops at that screen where you are to move the slider to allocate disk space. I can move the slider but I never get a 'continue' option. It stays greyed out.
And last night it stopped at the wifi connect. I left it on all night to give it a chance but this morning just the same.
So I tried without the wifi and hung at the disk allocation.
Tried side by side and tried sole.
Same problems.
The computer only has a 40g drive. 27g used now by win7. Ubuntu asks for 7.5. I try to allocate 10 to ubuntu.
Do you think I've got a bad setup disk or does it look like a bad host machine or I'm doing something wrong... or what?
