You probably have UEFI, and need to turn off fast-startup and need the 64-bit xubuntu DVD. At the grub menu, press 'e' to see a ton of text. Scroll down with the keyboard up and down buttons until you see something like:
Code:
... ro quiet splash
Change it to:
Press F10, and the screen will blank, and fill with text. Wait. Then you will be logged in to Xubuntu. Install, then reboot. You will see the same grub menu, so do the same procedure.
To make permanent, install grub-customizer (run the following commands:
Code:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:danielrichter2007/grub-customizer
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install grub-customizer
).
Run it. Enter your password. Go to the "General settings" tab. In the "kernel parameters" section, change what it says in the text box to:
Hit "Save". You're done! Anything happens in the way, just tell us. We'll be glad to help.
