Hello,


For a long time I tried to install on my laptop to install on it new Ubuntu 17.10 (so far I have Ubuntu 17.04). I have trouble loading ISO into a USB stick. Every time I load ISO on a pendrive (I tested 5 and bought 6 new!) Pops up the message:


(initramfs) mount: mounting / dev / loop0 on //filesystem.squashfs failed: Invalid argument
Can not mount / dev / loop0 (/cdrom/casper/filesystem.squashfs) on //filesystem.squashfs


Interestingly, I tested the pendrive on another computer and it works. And on my laptop (Kiano Slimnote 14.1) pops up error ... so far every linux I installed was no problem ...


My laptop has UEFI. I have disabled the secure boot.


I installed ISO using Unetbooin and Rufus (on windows). I tried other Linux installs but all the time the same error. Can anyone help?


Regards

You say your laptop has UEFI
Are the pendrives you are trying to install from UEFI?
I needed to create a UEFI FAT partition on my SD card, unpacked the ISO to it using startup disk creator then booted to the UEFI on my bios rather than the device direct.
Just a thought

i have had too much bad experience some times ago with unetbootin, so i've made an other choice: liveusb.info and installing from netboot mini iso

Yes, I know that I can update, but I want to do disk format and install clean linux, but it is still error, no matter what Linux I install. Always the same mistake.


Interesting that pendrives work on other laptops. Only on my laptop is the error. Maybe something with GRUB?
