Good evening,
I've been stuck on this step for ages and I've tried just about everything to get this going but so far no dice. What happens is when I get to step 2 of the installation (Wireless screen) and after I click continue (whether or not I choose to connect to a network yields the same results) it just hangs forever. I've searched all throughout these forums and beyond for an explanation on this matter but nothing will work. I may sound a bit desperate because I really need this to work but it's been nothing but frustration.
At this point I believe the problem lies on incompatibilities with the Network card. Any idea on how to disable it upon installation?
Additional info:
- I'm installing through USB flash drive (no optical drive)
- Tried ubuntu 14.10, 12.10 (Alt downloads included). Neither will work.
- Tried lubuntu aswell, following error occured:
ubiquity crashed with UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xff in position 114: invalid start byte
- Checked disk for errors, no issues.
- Tried nocmraid upon installation
- Tested with another HDD
