[Yhslug] installing ubuntu on this snowy day

[Nicholas Wheeler]

I'm gonna assume /dev/hdc is your cd-rom device, in which case you're
gonna wanna verify that the cd you burnt is a valid one. Also, take an
md5sum of the iso you downloaded and compare that to the md5sum from
where you downlaoded it.
