Ubuntu/Linux on Q1900-ITX

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I am trying to get Ubuntu or Linux installed on a Asrock Q1900-ITX. I just cannot seem to get the install started. It current has Windows 10 on it which is a 32bit os. Please can someone assist me with this ? 
I downloaded all the images and burned them to dvd via ImgBurn and still cannot get to the install side of the boot disc. I keep on getting a dos screen that gives me error messages then freezes.

Do I need to change anything in the BIOS side ?

Thank you

	I always use Linux Live USB for linux installs. Give it a try, it is way simpler and less prone to issues. Google "Linux Live USB", it should be the top result.
