hi all,
I got a few old computers and figured I'd make a "better" one to run Ubuntu as another utility comp in a HP case. Now, I'm using the HP mobo that came with it, 256 ram (dont need much), a little 20gb HDD (again, dont need much to run ubuntu), 2.20ghz Celeron processor, but the problem I'm having is the Cd rom drive. I've got everything connected up as I have in the other older HP, with the cables setup the same. It would boot to the HDD fine (had Win98 on it due to the HDD's old processor) but it almost seemed like the Cd rom didn't spin up when the Cd was in it, so I wiped the HDD clean. When I boot up it goes through bios then says "Operating System not found".
Any ideas?
