Re: Fwd: Help - Beta2 installation Failed

 

Ali, and all:

Yesterday, using a Live-USB created by the (ubuntu repository) "usb-creator-gtk" package (and the beta2 13.04 Lubuntu system), I installed a system running the live USB, on my 450 megahertz, 512 megabyte RAM HP-Vectra system.

I did not have to remove the ubiquity slideshow package (as I would have to do with the live CD for a 512 RAM installation).

I think the difference, is that the usb-creator-gtk package creates a persistence file for you (if you choose that option), so everything used doesn't have to reside in a RAM file-system (which uses memory needed for installation).

Hi,

I didn't get an reply from you guys for two days now :D I hope everyone is busy with testing ;)

Ok, thanks to Phill who advised to go for the alternate image instead of the desktop one (i386 for both) and indeed, the alternate image installation is DONE successfully from the first time :D

I will try one LAST time to install from the desktop image and will use the same method to create the liveUSB, that is "dd" method. If it will fail yet again, I think someone needs to have a serious look at the desktop image.

Will keep you posted ;)

Hi,

I have written everything on my blog with screenshots so there you go:

I hate the same issue previously with the daily image of 18-3-2013 but that was on Beta1 stage. We are now on Beta2 :(

Lance gave me this link previously:

http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/ubuntu-initrd-bug.html

That didn't help previously to fix the issue.

I'm OUT of idea because this is the first time I have a failure installation :(

Thank you!

P.S.
Yes, this is a very fresh new installation.

Also note: Lubuntu 12.10 is installed on that very machine and it is my main OS.
