| freeroute | hi, I'm trying to run the live 14.04 from USB stick on a computer with BIOS version P4i65G P1.10 (Celeron 2.4GHz). MD5 sum checked out and afterwards I ran the following command from another machine - 'dcfldd if=lubuntu-14.04-desktop-i386.iso of=/dev/sdb'. That was successful as well, however when I try to boot from the USB on the target machine it says "isolinux.bin missing or corrupt". | 13:31 |
|---|---|---|
| freeroute | I also have a USB stick with SystemRescueCD, it however works. | 13:31 |
| leszek | freeroute: did you check if the iso is correct? md5sum check of the iso | 13:35 |
| leszek | ah sry you checked md5sum hmm... | 13:35 |
| freeroute | leszek: | 13:36 |
| freeroute | oops, yes | 13:36 |
| leszek | "dcfldd if= ... " you mean dd right ? | 13:36 |
| freeroute | leszek: it works on the same principle, but I tried dd as well | 13:36 |
| freeroute | dcfldd is dd with some nice features (is used most of the time in forensics) | 13:36 |
| leszek | hmm... and the stick is big enough for the ISO ? | 13:36 |
| freeroute | 8gb | 13:37 |
| freeroute | leszek: I'm trying to think of a way to install lubuntu 14.04. Is installing ubuntu-netinst and then installing lubuntu-desktop an idea? | 13:39 |
| leszek | freeroute: might be an idea. But before that. What you always could try is formatting the usb stick with fat32 and then try unetbootin with the lubuntu iso and see if that'll work out | 13:40 |
| freeroute | leszek: tried that, "Boot error" | 13:40 |
| freeroute | also tried different USB sticks | 13:41 |
| freeroute | was in #ubuntu before coming here | 13:41 |
| leszek | hmm... thats strange | 13:41 |
| leszek | I don't think the iso is broken as booted fine here | 13:41 |
| leszek | but you didn't choose the default first boot entry after unetbootin the iso on the stick ? Because that default entry never worked for me :P | 13:42 |
| freeroute | what do you mean? It asked to to install onto /dev/sdb1 (and also have it mounted) | 13:42 |
| leszek | I meant the boot menu when you try booting from the stick it should give you a menu or does even this not work for you ? | 13:43 |
| freeroute | ah that, no that doesn't even work :p | 13:43 |
| freeroute | it does with SystemRescueCD though | 13:43 |
| leszek | hmm... ok thats very strange then | 13:44 |
| freeroute | it's a very old PC though | 13:44 |
| leszek | as long as you can get ubuntu-netinst up and running on your system thats not that big of a deal as you can easily install lubuntu-desktop via the internet then | 13:44 |
| leszek | still its a bit odd | 13:45 |
| freeroute | could be a crappy BIOS perhaps | 13:45 |
| annabel_ | tried flashing your bios freeroute? | 14:26 |
| annabel_ | Or setting it to default | 14:26 |
| freeroute | annabel_: I'm just going to buy another PC first probably. | 16:13 |
