I installed Xubuntu from a USB. It worked fine 3 months ago, and I have been using another computer since. I want to put Kubuntu on the first one, so I put Kubuntu on USB, and I now I get "Disk Boot Failure" error messages. Nothing seems to work when I tweak BIOS settings. If I did before, then it seems like it would be possible unless after installing Xubuntu it might prevent me from installing again (which doesn't make much sense because I easily went from Ubuntu to Kubuntu on a third hard drive). Anyway, I am curious what you would do to try to get the USB installation to work. NO cd or internet solutions for this request.
While I wait for replies, I will try to use the internet to install Kubuntu, but it's not installing from the software center and crashes. I will probably try updating Xubuntu in order to get Kubuntu. Maybe that is the problem with the internet installation, but I am still curious what you guys think would be the solution to installing Kubuntu on a USB. I also have the USB which has Xubuntu installation and I have the same problem. I haven't done anything different to the computer and I am rather stumped. It shows the files on the USB stick and has it listed in BIOS.
