Hi all,
I downloaded an Ubuntu 16 iso file and created a bootable image using Rufu on my Windows machine. Now booted from my USB and trying to install Ubuntu as a dual boot with my Windows. Got to the "Install (as superuser)" section, but under the Installation type there is nothing listed.
When I click the + - or change it just hangs. The drop down only has /dev/sda
The only thing that may work if I click a hundred times, is the x at the left corner, then a message pops up: Matacity: Install as superuser is not responding and I have the option to Force Quit or Wait. Then I clicked on the Force Quit and it takes me to the Ubuntu desktop which I don't think it has been installed - It's fully functional but maybe it's just the live try Ubuntu. Then I click on the disk icon (Install Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS) and this time it gives me the installation types:
/dev/sdd
/dev/sdd1 fat32 ---> size 3867 MB Used 1595MB
Device for boot loader installation:
/dev/sdd1
/dev/sdd ---> My USB drive
Whichever combinations I pick, it keeps giving me an error. Please let me know what to do, I never had installed Ubuntu from a USB before. This new laptop doesn't come with a DVD player and I really want to get this to work.
Thanks
