Acer Aspire One Install Bug

[AuToFiRE]

popped BT5 32 bit Gnome and KDE onto a usb drive, tried to install, gets to first splash screen, sits for a minute, then spams me with 10,000 errors (or just one massive one)

/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:1d.7/usb1/1-3/host6/target6:0:0/6:0:0:1/block/sr0... etc etc as it just keeps going on repeating that same thing over and over

so yeah, anything I can do?

nothing at all, just the thumbdrive

ok what did you use to install the iso to usb ??? unetbootin??? did you try linux usb creator http://www.linuxliveusb.com/

try reinstall it and if you have the same error we will go deeper in some trouble shooting

also when booting try a different usb port

what i noticed with a quick eye that it gets to the login before the suicide zombie errors start attacking. after it was done spitting out the 10k errors, i typed in root and got

/bin/sh: ????????????root: not found

and yes, i will do your suggestion right now

still spitting out the errors.

errors..
errors everywhere
they are consuming my mind..
they are consuming my soul!

I got this exact same thing on my Aspire One D255. Found a fix yet?

D250 here. No install problems. Only weird thing I've had so far is the Ubuntu 10.10 splash screen still pops up after BT is installed over it.

I am booting from USB. I still cannot get BT5 to work. I also had a problem with BT4, but i was able to type in "fix-vesa" and get BT4 to work. I don't get a chance to try it in BT5.

I found a fix. For me at least. All I did was use a different USB stick. I was using a 4gb U3 something or other. Now I am using a 4gb Kingston and it is installing.
