Well if I could get that far to tell about any errors I'll consider myself lucky.  I don't see any errors, it gets past the point where you're given a chance to put in other parameters for booting and then the screen flickers and reboots.  NO ERRORS NOTHING!  It reboots as soon as it starts to boot the kernel.  I can't get into the system at all.  And no it's not easy especially when you can't see anything......
