unjustice1I am trying to make a live usb to boot and then install ubuntu studio have been having a lot of issues with the 22.04 iso found here: https://ubuntustudio.org/download/02:19
unjustice1Is there a more reliable one somewhere?02:19
Eickmeyerunjustice1: The exact same instructions are linked here: https://ubuntu.com/tutorials/install-ubuntu-desktop#3-create-a-bootable-usb-stick02:20
EickmeyerPretty much the way to do it and what we endorse.02:20
EickmeyerWhat system are you starting from?02:21
unjustice1I bought a new System76 and it crapped out running Ubuntu 22.04, I am using an old windows laptop to get Ubuntu Studio on a USB to reinstall02:22
Eickmeyerunjustice1: Then either BalenaEtcher or Rufus can be used. Either one should do the trick.02:22
unjustice1I tried rufus and unetbootin, the USB would just lock on a blank screen after boot02:22
EickmeyerDid you check to make sure the download was complete?02:23
unjustice1The download seems to fail a lot, but the one that finished was complete02:24
unjustice1not sure how to check md5sums on winblows02:24
unjustice1I was worried that the iso was messed up in some way and downloaded 20.04, but I just started the DL again a minute ago...maybe this time it will work02:25
Eickmeyermd5sums are not published anymore.02:25
Eickmeyerhttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToSHA256SUM02:25
Eickmeyerhttps://ubuntu.com/tutorials/how-to-verify-ubuntu#1-overview02:25
Eickmeyerhttps://www.windowsdigitals.com/verify-md5-sha256-checksum-windows-11/02:26
Eickmeyerunjustice1: If you've been having trouble downloading, that's a very good reason to check the sha256sum as, even though your system might report a complete download, it might not be.02:27
unjustice1Yeah, a bit strange. It just keeps failing02:28
EickmeyerTorrent might also improve reliability.02:28
unjustice1I'll give that a shot02:28
Eickmeyerunjustice1: What country are you located in? I might be able to find you a closer mirror.02:28
unjustice1USA, east coast02:28
EickmeyerStandby..02:29
Eickmeyerunjustice1: Try from here: https://mirror.us.leaseweb.net/ubuntu-cdimage/ubuntustudio/releases/22.04.3/release/02:29
EickmeyerThat's an approved mirror.02:29
unjustice1Weird, these ones fail instantly. The other one got part way through atleast02:30
unjustice1I might try a different browser, let's see02:31
EickmeyerThis one is UK, but who knows: https://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/cdimage.ubuntu.com/cdimage/ubuntustudio/releases/22.04.3/release/02:33
unjustice1OMG, stupid me the HD is full02:34
EickmeyerThat'd do it!02:34
unjustice1So, a follow up question. Ubuntu is already installed on my computer but won't boot in anything but recovery mode due to some wild errors...that I am not really looking to fix. I will probably just reinstall. 02:49
unjustice1However, I would like to move some files before I wipe the whole thing and reformat. From the USB boot, can I get access to this via terminal before I wipe it?02:50
unjustice1Normally recovery mode is read only02:50
EickmeyerYou should be able to, yes.02:55
EickmeyerEven from the file manager.02:55
unjustice1Alright, I will give it a go02:56
unjustice1There is no mouse cursor apparent03:18
EickmeyerThere was when I tested that .iso image and approved it for release.03:23
EickmeyerIt hasn't been modified since.03:23
unjustice1It seems mostly fine, I am just assuming that I can get the mouse to work after the install03:24
unjustice1seems like everyon just installs gnome-tweaks, but not sure this will work with KDE...we'll see03:27
unjustice1Super frustrating, changing cursor size, type has no effect04:06
unjustice1reboot, logout, and disconnecting/reconnecting makes no effect either. It doesn't matter if I switch to another mouse either04:07
unjustice1still no cursor04:07
