[SYSLINUX 3.86 2010-04-01 EBIOS] Ubuntu 10.10 unable to install

Asked by squishycat

I downloaded Ubuntu 10.10 netbook edition, and managed to get to a Syslinux error at boot.

SYSLINUX 3.86 2010-04-01 EBIOS Copyright (C) 1994-2010 H. Peter Anvin et al
Unknown boot parameter 'gfxboot'

That last line may be worded differently, but gfxboot is mentioned. The fix at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9948980 did not help.
I used the startup disk creator in the root of the .iso and got all files onto my flash drive, yet I can not get further than the BIOS (Bootloader).

My laptop is a Gateway LT21
