Kubuntu 18.10 installation problem












0















I’m installing Kubuntu 18.10 from flash USB-stick on a brand new pc with no prior OS installed.



My pc specs are:



MSI B450M Gaming Plus
AMD Ryzen 3 2200G 3,7GHz
Geil value RAM 8GB DDR4-2133
AMD Radeon RX Vega 8



After I reach the screen where I can install Kubuntu and select install, the error message I keep getting is:



BusyBox v1.27.2 (Ubuntu 1:1.27.2-2ubuntu4) built-in shell (ash)
Enter ‘help’ for a list of commands.



(initrams) mkdir: can’t create directory ‘/com/work’: Structure needs cleaning
mount: mounting /dev/loop1 on //filesystem.squashfs failed: Input/output error
Can not mount /dev/loop1 (/cdrom/casper/filesystem.squashfs) on //filesystem.squashfs



(initrams)



Is there a quick fix to this problem or am I still a long way from having a workable Kubuntu OS?

  • Have you tried any other os’s on it at all? May be try another Linux distro Debian stretch, an older Ubuntu around 16 or so. First thing I would do is reinstall the live iso again on the flash device or befor that try using a USB port which is actually mounted to the motherboard not one which is connected to the board over a cable. Deffo try USB port mounted to the motherboard first. Then if not reinstall the iso if not again try another distro older version and hen try running it from a disk instead of usb, it’s a painful process but you’ve gotta to the elimination route. Hope you get it done

  • Turn off secure boot.

  • Ok so I’ve tried a different version, namely Kubuntu 16.04.5 and it doesn’t show the same text, but after a white screen it briefly shows: [ 4.609311] AMD-Vi: Unable to write to IOMMU perf counter. And then there’s nothing but a black screen. I’ve tried over and over, same outcome.
