Well, Intrepid Ibex Alpha 2 is under development so expect problems (even severe ones) that will be fixed later. The Alpha 2 announcement said to use the Alternate CD (not the CD Live) which installed just fine on my system; the CD Live fails, on two different PC's. Note the Alternate CD is in text mode.

If you want to get some experience on installs, try Ubuntu Hardy Heron 8.04.1. That's pretty stable. When you get some experience dual boot is good; you can have one linux which works and a second to try out. If the try fails you can usually use the one which works to get going again.

BTW, don't try manual partitioning on the Alternate. It made three partitions of 8.2 mb each on a 20.9 mb drive - obviously that's a don't fit. I used Gparted Live to straighten it out. Hardy Heron Install would also fix this.
