Exactly! It's also why it took me a while to catch on. I never imagined this would be the case and was looking for more unusual solutions in my apt.conf and the like.

Thanks for your help!

Well, this turned out to be stupid...

My sources.list was completely wrong. All the entries that begin with address "http://us.archive.ubuntu.com" are destined to fail as that repo doesn't have an...

That was my first thought, but I can't find an alternative repo. It seems most mirrors don't yet host arm64.

I'm running Mate 20.10 on Ras Pi (arm64). APT seems to be telling me http://us.archive.ubuntu.com is down, which I know isn't true.

When I run
sudo apt update I get:


404 Not Found [IP:...

My friend, you quoted me, the OP, but I didn't post that!

Fpalmer_35 said he also had a similar problem and posted his output.

Thank you and cheers,

Right. Then what happens after you boot windows again?

I have a Samsung laptop running Win 8.1. I have made sure to turn off fast startup in Windows. It never goes into hibernation, either. The bios is set to secure boot off, and all other sane settings....

Which flavor are you running? Ubuntu, Lubuntu, Xubuntu, etc.

You install it and then boot it. :)

Simple, is it not? All of Ubuntu Studio, including the low latency kernel, is in the repositories.

But Ubuntu Studio is pretty customizable. I'm sure you can...

1. Are you formatting the disk when you install or trying to overwrite it?

2. If you are installing anew, just be sure to choose a password when the time comes.

3. With your specs, I'd use...

I'm definitely going to try mkusb-nox next time!

Thank you.

Yeah, I've heard that before, but I never did it. There must be something to it, but I can't understand why dd needs an extra push to do the job...

Also, I think if you unmount the USB, it will do...

Very interesting! I was unaware of this. Thank you!

Tell me about it. I TRIPPLE CHECK that one little letter... ;)





Oh, I forgot to mention, I tried that. Not this last time, but a few weeks ago. It didn't help.

I've always used unetbootin with success, that is until about the last 6 months or so.

It's nothing specific, but I've just noticed a lot more failures with Ubuntu. This is across old and new USB...

Mostly, I have no idea. :)

I'd doubt Mathmatica killed your hard drive. I'm sure Ubuntu didn't. Rather, the intensive workload and then installation process uncovered problems that were lying...

You can mark bad sectors as unusable and continue to use the disk, but I've found once you have bad sectors, you have a bad disk and it's only a matter of time.

You can try to mark the sectors as...

Is it possible it's trying to install grub to the USB?

Ha. I thought it would work, but only for linux. Windows was always going to be a separate matter.

Since it appears you have deleted everything again, anyway, then we'll do this from the beginning...

He shrank partitions, etc. I think he just copied partition by partition. Which is why I suggested the simplest solution first. It may just work!

Windows will certainly have issues, but may be...

It should be simple. Run a live session from DVD/USB and install boot repair. It should do all the dirty work for you correctly with the click of a button. If it doesn't, post back and well have to...

It does not do it automatically. It takes a bit of time.

You don't need any command in the terminal. When you boot from the usb, it's an option under the try without installing and install...

Sometimes

sudo shutdown -h now
is not enough to bring the system to power off. Try:

sudo shutdown -hP now

In my system, I need the -P option to power off, the -h will just halt and wait...

Believe it or not, I think you are ok.

You can just run:


apt-get autoremove

to do the clean-up. Check the output to make sure apt isn't removing anything crucial, but it shouldn't. If you...
