I'm trying to install 18.04.1 on my old desktop (Celeron g1610, 3.6 GB RAM, BIOS: American Megatrends P1.10 (2013)) and I get the squashfs errors. I've tried it from two USB sticks, and got exactly the same errors. I've tried the solutions listed elsewhere, which didn't work. I could figure out which line was the kernel line (starts with linux), but I wasn't able to find out which line is supposed to be the 'grub line' for adding 'all_generic_ide pci=nommconf'. I'm not familiar with grub, so maybe I'm just missing something. My version only shows 4 lines:
setparams 'try ubuntu without installing'
set gfxpayload=keep
linux /casper/vmllinuz file=cdrom/preseed/ubuntu/seed boot=casper quiet splash ---
initrd /casper/intitrd/lz
I tried the all_generic code on all the lines, with none fixing the problem. Am I supposed to start a new line with a specific word for the code? Is there some other way to fix this inability to install? Am I supposed to wait for the squashfs errors to finish being listed, which would take how long?
I'd like to tell people that Ubuntu is easy to install, but my experiences say that it's really frustrating. I avoided upgrading from 14.04 until now because I expected this sort of frustration.
