I have a Macbook Pro 4,1 It has a 64 bit Intel chipset. I download Ubuntu-11.10-amd-64.iso

I have verified that macbook iso md5sum and the cd boots to the live CD mode too. The installation completes upto 60% and then fails with the following dialog.

Ubuntu Install Fail

I am not sure if this a problem with CD has I have tried a couple of times and it has failed with a different CD at a different point in time.

  • I think it is CD error. You better go to Ubuntu forum at this link ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=328 for apple users support.

  • It is not a CD error. I seem to have tried 3 attempts with different CDs and 1 dvd. Apr 15, 2012 at 9:33
  • Then try what Chan-Ho Suh suggested.

Try installing using the mac iso. There are a couple versions for 11.10 here depending on what kind of install you want.

  • Unfortunately gave the same error to me. Either it could my CD writing problem or problem with mac hd. Apr 16, 2012 at 12:04
  • I'm sorry to hear that. Try the Ubuntu forums and look for the MacBook Pro 4,1 threads. There tends to be a lot more info there on Mac related stuff than here. Apr 17, 2012 at 22:41
