A few minutes ago I downloaded the daily server image linked above by Joseph. The install fails in the same way. I've attached a photo of the output on tty4 for reference.
If it's helpful the system is a Supermicro 6047R-E1R36N which uses a X9DRi-LN4F+ motherboard (Xeon E5-2600 v2 family). The only thing added to the system is a Intel X540-T2 10GbE adapter. ** Attachment added: "tty4_daily.jpg" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1640245/+attachment/4777336/+files/tty4_daily.jpg -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1640245 Title: Ubuntu Server 16.04 install errors on linux-generic (dependency problem) Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I've tried several times to install Ubuntu Server 16.04.1 (and 16.04) and both error out and stop when installing linux-generic package during the "Install Base System" step of the install.
