You did not read my message very clearly Steve. You boot from the CD
because otherwise the computer will just go into XP each time on some
systems. You get the F12 or whatever the boot sequence tells you is the
key to get the menu to boot from the CD drive as I said.

If he in fact wants to boot from Ubuntu first he will have to edit the
grub once he has installed and got the grub duel boot. Editing is not as
easy on 10.04 as it was in previous version.

You always write as in you know its and other do not Steve. Try to make
it a little less condescending.
