Default MORE Ubuntu problems

Okay, when I start, it tells me to install Ubuntu. I do so. I wait a few minutes, and don't get any GUI. I try typing the command "startx" It doesn't do anything. WHAT COMMAND DO I DO NOW?!?!?!

Default Re: MORE Ubuntu problems

When you say you wait a few mins, what happens when you are waiting?
And are you sure you are installing a desktop Ubuntu.. and not a server one?
