Press and hold the power button for 5 or 10 sec. You'll hear a beep. Then you will put back in XBM.

Btw, you need a USB mouse and Keyboard to install Ubuntu or any other Linux.

i do not recommend using an SDTV for linux, odds are youll get a CMD prompt based OS.

After installing it it will work on both SD and HD. Make sure you install it on HD so you get a GUI for installation.
