I have installed and run ubuntu usb and it shows a blinking underscore ("_") at boot. I have checked google extensively and researched the topic but still could not find the answer. I have tried installing Ubuntu 12.04, 13.04 and Lubuntu 13.04 without any success.
I do not want:
1) persistent USB
2) partition my USB
3) use complicated instructions involving terminal commands
Here are my specs:
Intel i5-3450
AMD Radeon HD 7800 series.
Here are the steps taken:
1. winMd5sum check on ISO
2. install ubuntu onto USB drive (installer drive) using universal usb installer.
3. unplugged all my hardrives
4. run ubuntu without installing
5. unmounted the USB drive (Ubuntu drive) that I want to install it on.
6. run gpart to create new partition and formatted the drive to ex4
7. run installer - selected the "Ubuntu drive", selected boot to / and format to use ex4
8. fail.
