Public bug reported:
Upgraded to 16.04 from 14.04, and upon discovering that it wasn't
complete enough for my use, I decided to roll back. Downloaded the
14.04.4 iso from ubuntu website, ran "sudo dd if=(iso file)
of=/dev/sdb(external hard drive). Everything went smoothly, as usual.
Booted installation media and went straight to install because I assumed
it would be a quick process. ... I've tried it probably 10 times now,
and get "errno5" every single time. Always at a different point during
install. I've told it to use the entire disk where my 16.04 install was,
in order to wipe out any remnants of the old install and allow for a
fresh experience...It wiped grub only, now I haven't got a single
bootable os on any of my harddrives, as the "boot ubuntu to try it out"
option on my installation disk, doesn't seem to work. It boots to a
black screen. I can't manually wipe the ssd for installation in grub
either. I am unable to select the format option on the partition that
I'd like to wipe.

Title:
installation media (external 36gb hard drive) won't run live ubuntu,
only the install option. Spits out errno5 every time I try to install
to internal ssd, always at a different point during installation.
