The Live CD is not working, also when installing, it takes too long (waiting for network response?) synchronizing the clock takes too long. Sometimes keyboard and mouse don't work.

After upgrading from 9.10 to 10.04 I have the same problems as with a clean install or as with booting the LIVE cd. Starting in recovery to shell with networking I seem to have a network. Can someone say what can disturb this connection when I boot fully? They are a lot of time-outs in the log, anyone can help me with those?

Starting in recovery and then login it says:
"This CPU is family 15, model 3, and has NX capabilities but is unable to use these protective features because the BIOS is configured to disable the capability." While it is well known that this model (Socket 478, with most recent BIOS) has no NX capabilities (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Celeron#Prescott-256)

It is very difficult to get any information without a network and I can imagine there are more people out there struggling and not able to report this.

This is (of-the-shelf) a true catastrophe.
