UBCD doesn't do anything

#1 Post by Znex » Thu Feb 03, 2011 9:28 pm

Hey, I just recently got the UBCD image onto a cd, and I've tried booting with it. However, although it says that the computer is booting the cd, nothing actually happens (though a string of info poured down the first time; but apart from offering me safe mode, nothing else really happened). Could someone please help with this?

Can you write down the whole string, you see?

No, unfortunately. It only happened once and since then, I haven't seen it.

Hmm, well have you checked to see if you have an exact copy of UBCD? Please make sure your downloaded copy matches the MD5/SHA1 that is listed on the download page.


I should really make a wiki page on how to properly check the download before burning...

Could a testcd feature similar to Linux live CDs be added to UBCD?

That really sounds like a good idea, even an autorun option to check CD for Hash sum and compare.
