I am getting this same error is 14.04.1-desktop-i386 Check disk for errors reports no problems with the install USB
After getting the same apt config error I press the OK button and then it tells me that that the install was successful and to reboot. When i reboot i get the flashing curser and no more. I have tried tried installing 4 times and I've tried boot-repair-disk twice. Still to no avail. The workaround mentioned above is very confusing and although seemingly a USB issue... My little netbook has no dvd to install from, and though i have a portable cd writer, this image is far too big to burn to CD. So, I am stuck with USB only method of installing. and it fails repeatedly. Would someone please classify this a CRITICAL and ASSIGN it to someone? Or simple fix the issue? Or make the workaround clear enough to know when method1 ends and method2 begins? The only other workaround i can imagine is is downloading the 12.04 and doing 4 upgrades. How lame is that? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/658865 Title: Install from USB fails: "An attempt to configure apt to install additional packages from the CD failed" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/estobuntu/+bug/658865/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
