As wardog said, there is no official support for Ubuntu or any Linux version with any ASRock board. You'll find that to be true for any mother board manufacture. The driver disk only contains drivers and software that is Windows compatible.

Drivers and software for the various hardware components in a mother board are provided by the manufacture of the hardware themselves. For example, your board has an Intel H110 chipset, Realtek audio and network chips, and whatever WiFi adapter you are using. Those manufactures provide the drivers and software to the mother board manufactures. Mother board manufactures do not create drivers and software for those components.

If the various hardware manufactures had Linux compatible drivers available, then the mother board manufactures could provide them to you. It's also more complex than that, depending upon the version of Linux being used.

So when someone uses Ubuntu or other variant of Linux, they are on their own providing drivers and other essential software, sorry to say. You'll need to find assistance through the various Ubuntu and Linux websites, such as where you downloaded Ubuntu.

For starters there's no drivers for Ubuntu(or any Linux variant) on the included CD.

Is this a Live CD you're trying to use, OR, did you go the Install route?
