Hi All,
I am using an IBall Marshall Dual Core Laptop, it does not alllow the install of Linux as the installer, irrespective of the linux flavor hangs up, can anyone suggest a way to install Linux in the system. Most linux installers hang up without any error message
I have tried the noapic and nolapic options in boot parameters with Ubuntu
The BIOS is a Phoenix BIOS, but SIW reports it as COMPAL BIOS
at present, it has windows installed in it and working fine
Regards Surya Pratap

Try pressing Alt + F1/F8/F12 to see if any of them show any message, do it before the installer hangs though. Also, check other cheat codes. Have you tried Knoppix?

Phoenix bios is known to have some issues with most linux distros try giving an boot parameter like noapic
