I ran into this problem during installation - to get around it I performed a textbased (non graphical) install and then followed your instructions after that had completed. Thanks again.

I ran into this problem while installing and booting Ubuntu 8.04. To get around it I performed a non-graphical installation and then followed your instructions after the install was finished. This is apparently a problem that crops up in Dell machines quite often. Hey man, thanks very much for this - it completely fixed the problem.
