I am trying to install Ubuntu (latest LTS) from a live version (booted from USB on my Windows laptop) to a 128GiB USB. Whenever I try, it fails to format the ext4 partition. I set a 50GiB fat32 partition (mount at /UDISK), a 60GiB ext4 partition (mount at /), and a ~17GiB swap partition. I get an error message at this point, asking me to go back and add an EFI partition, and I have tried proceeding both with and without this partition (300MiB). Whichever way I try, a few seconds later I get the following message:
"The attempt to mount a file system with type ext4 in SCSI5 (0,0,0), partition #2 (sdc) at / failed."
When trying to partition via gparted or the terminal, the fat32 partition is created successfully, but the other partitions just say 'unformatted' (correct sizes though, and gparted seems to think that it was successful).
Is there anyone else who encountered this error or can help me?
Thanks!
P.S. I also tried formatting the partition via AOMEI Partition Assistant on Windows, and the same thing occurs: it says that it's successful, but is listed as unformatted.
P.S.S. I just tried formatting via AOMEI again, but putting the ext4 partition first, and that worked, but then the fat32 partition failed. Why would it only allow me to format the first partition?
