won't install on my HP Compaq nx7400

[vern96]

Good day-

I tried three times now to install to HD from the LiveDVD..... everything appears to be good, then it asks to "keep testing" or "reboot".

I reboot, remove the disk as directed, hit enter and it comes up with nothing but this on a black screen:

GNU GRUB version 1.98-1ubuntu12

<some directions for using GRUB>

grub>

thats it,.....

Any ideas? help?
