First things first.
1 - Find what is causing the problem - try to boot a live Kubuntu usb or cd and check these logs
/var/log/syslog
/var/log/boot.log
/var/log/dmesg
/var/log/kern.log
It looks like you installed Ubuntu in BIOS mode. This is known as longer boot times.
Open terminal and type
ls /sys/firmware/efi
If "no such file or directory" then you installed Ubuntu in...
What is the point?
You can install Ubuntu (64bits) in UEFI mode with GPT. No need to convert to MBR.
Just boot in UEFI mode, wipe the disk, have fun.
You must go 'somewhere else' (advanced). DO NOT choose the first option.
I had that issue too. Don't know what the cause is. It seems that sometimes the installer just doesn't detect the...
I'm not sure if boot repair is the right tool for the job.
Anyways, check the folders permissions to be sure it is a permission error and open nautilus as root using the live installation dvd to...
Maybe the problem is related to your video card.
Just try the kernel parameter 'nomodeset'.
Before hit try ubuntu, press key e
Replace quiet spash with nomodeset
Press Ctrl + x when done.

Maktube, you're close.
Can you at least move your mouse?
My iMac took several minutes before "choose installation type". Maybe you have to wait a little longer?
Cheers,

Yes there are hackers that actually have written it many years ago. loadlin
But that won't work for you I guess.
I suppose you're installing it so just a few hints.
Be careful when you create/resize partitions because you're probably using Hybrid MBR. I recommend using OS X disk utility to set up your...
Well done.
Keep in mind that 15.04 will be supported until '16 Jan.
This is how you create a new GPT partition table:
(This will destroy all your data but you can start over and install ubuntu again)
Start ubuntu usb
select try ubuntu

Ouch. I hope you have backup.
I think you're able to fix it. Now first things first did you tried to write a new partition table?
Generic steps: boot ubuntu from usb; write a new gpt partition...
No need to use bootcamp IMO.
I noticed my Mac took like 15 mins before "Installation type". But then it went ok.
You did right by creating the partition using disk utility.
What installation type...
Thank you awamunro and crystalocean!
Hi.
Maybe the reason is a bug in its firmware.
I assume you tried to boot the installer from rEFInd menu and alt/option?
Food for thought

Same problem here.
It used to work years ago. I could sync my iPod touch using Rhythmbox. Not anymore :(

Yes. Yes. Don't know. What is your current hardware?
Did the ubuntu installer detected OS X Yosemite? Mine did not and it just boot into ubuntu like yours. That makes sense well if you do have only 1 SO why a boot manager?
Anyways I assume your...
Hi. Is it possible to install Ubuntu dual boot w/ OS X without overwriting the default rEFInd?
Here is how I did it:
Install rEFInd under OS X
Partition from disk utility under OS X
Boot from...
Ok looks like I solved with the following workaround:
DHCP lease time in my router set to 86400 secs (it was 3600).
eth0 seems to be in trouble to renew IP but only when I don't use network for a while like 1/2 hour. When resuming from suspend/blank screen network is OK.
For me it seems that there's some kind of...
