CORRECTING RESOLUTION

Ubuntu Server 6.06 needs to have "vga=0x314" added to "/boot/grub/menu.lst" to play nice with Microsoft Virtual Server 2005 and Virtual PC 2007. When GRUB is loading, press ESC and load in recovery mode to edit the menu.lst file. The kernel line should look something like:

kernel       /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15-26-server vga=0x314 root=/dev/hda1 ro quiet splash

To edit the file, issue command: sudo nano /boot/grub/menu.lst
