I can't install Ubuntu-14.04-desktop-amd64 on my Lenovo Thinkpad W510, using USB. I want a dual boot with Win7 and the latter is already installed.
Installing Ubuntu 9.04 from an old Live CD was possible without any problem, but after creating a bootable USB stick with Universal USB Installer according to Ubuntu instructions, I simply can't get past the menu and I can't do anything from there.
Whether I press Try without installing
, Install
or Check disc...
I get to a black screen with some text on it. I waited for more than 10 minutes to no avail.
Using F6, I enabled nomodeset
, but that did not solve anything. I also checked the ISO md5sum before burning and it was [ok].
Any ideas, please and thank you very much!
//later edit: fixed by using another USB stick.
