I've installed Oneiric on my laptop without any issue using the LiveCD downloaded here (from the French Ubuntu community server).

But on my desktop, weird things happen:

  • During the 1st try booting with the LiveCD on my desktop, my 2 year old child just hit the keyboard, and after several error messages the desktop loaded and I've been able to test Oneiric. But I wanted to redo a boot before installing Oneiric to avoid mistakes.

  • So during the 2nd time I tried to boot with the LiveCD, I couldn't access to the point where I can choose to test or install.

  • Before trying a 3rd time, I've "cleaned the system" from System Parameter > System. But after that I'm still not able to access to the point where I can choose to test or install. Now it stops all the time on a black screen.

I do not understand why several boot attempts with same CD have several results.

So I wonder if the state of my current installation 11.04 can affect re-booting with my CD 11.10 ?
