Hi all,
I am ty install Ubuntu from a USB drive and after clicking on try Ubuntu, I can't seem to be able to install it. The most recent error is: grub-install: error: failed to get canonical path of `aufs'.
Here is the output for my filesystem:
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo grub-install /dev/sda
Installing for i386-pc platform.

I installed boot repair and then rebooted my machine, then it booted from USB and same exact issues as before. Can someone please help me fix this issue and successfully install Ubuntu?
Thanks
