Public bug reported: This bug was found on a generic 1.3GHz Celeron PC with 512MB RAM using an Ubuntu 12.04 beta CDR. It used to be my main PC - it worked OK then and worked with earlier releases of Ubuntu Linux.
When installing this version of Linux, the installer comes to a halt with this message:- Installer failed. The installer encountered an unrecoverable error. A desktop session will now be run so that you may investigate the problem or try installing again. Story so far:- * Took 2 attempts to burn the CDR (1st disk was a cheap disk, 2nd was a Samsung disk). * 1st attempt to install got the above mentioned error message. * Rebooted and used the option to check the files on the CDR were OK. Test passed successfully. * Tried install - same result as the first attempt. * Rebooted & used the memtest86 option. Test passed successfully. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/985066 Title: Ubuntu 12.04 beta2 installer fails when copying files To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/985066/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
