Hi everyone
I'm trying to install Xubuntu 13.10 but it keeps failing.
First I want to say that I'm new to Linux, so please keep that in mind when trying to help me.
I am NOT trying to create a dual boot setup. I only want Xubuntu 13.10.
I downloaded Xubuntu 13.10 and created a bootable USB stick following this guide: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows
I installed Xubuntu with default partitions.
When I boot I always get this: http://i.imgur.com/Blm6Ocn.jpg
I did:
sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt
sudo mount --bind /dev /mnt/dev && sudo mount --bind /dev/run /mnt/dev/run && sudo mount --bind /proc /mnt/proc && sudo mount --bind /sys /mnt/sys
sudo chroot /mnt
update-grub
sudo nano /etc/default/grub
Change:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"
Into:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash libata.force=noncq"
update-grub
Rebooted & still the same problem...
