If you're multi-booting it's likely this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1080701
It's been around since mid-November and I've been quite vocal about it: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2128648 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2128648&p=12579118#post12579118 It's been a real thorn in my side and it's dramatically slowed my ability to properly test the iso images.

If it will fail yet again, I think someone needs to have a serious look at the desktop image. Will keep you posted ;) ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Ali Linx (amjjawad) <amjja...@gmail.com> Date: Thu, Apr 4, 2013 at 8:35 PM Subject: Help - Beta2 installation Failed To: "lubuntu...@lists.launchpad.net" <lubuntu...@lists.launchpad.net> Hi, I have written everything on my blog with screenshots so there you go: http://amjjawad.blogspot.com/2013/04/testing-lubuntu-1304-report-1.html I hate the same issue previously with the daily image of 18-3-2013 but that was on Beta1 stage. We are now on Beta2 :( Lance gave me this link previously: http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/ubuntu-initrd-bug.html That didn't help previously to fix the issue. I'm OUT of idea because this is the first time I have a failure installation :( Thank you! P.S.Yes, this is a very fresh new installation. Also note: Lubuntu 12.10 is installed on that very machine and it is my main OS. -- Best Regards, amjjawad https://wiki.ubuntu.com/amjjawad/ Lubuntu One Stop Thread| My Launchpad | My Ubuntu Forum Profile -- Best Regards, amjjawad https://wiki.ubuntu.com/amjjawad/ Lubuntu One Stop Thread| My Launchpad | My Ubuntu Forum Profile -----Inline Attachment Follows----- -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-qa Post to : lubuntu...@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-qa More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp -- Lubuntu-users mailing list Lubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/lubuntu-users
