I'm currently trying to update from 12.04 to 14.04 with a live USB which I made using the Startup Disk Creator application. However, whenever I boot up with it, it takes several minutes to start up, and I receive the following error:
Installation failed
The installer encountered an unrecoverable error. A desktop session will now be started...
I found this question which seemed similar, but I tried everything suggested there with no results. I verified the md5sum of the iso I used to make the USB image, and that checked out. Removing ubiquity slideshow as suggested in one of the answers also did not help, so I re-added that.
Whenever I try to run ubiquity to install Ubuntu 14.04, it just hangs (with the rotating waiting mouse icon) and then eventually closes.
I'm trying to install on a 64-bit HP Envy-15t, which is currently dual-booted with Windows 8.1 and Ubuntu 12.04, and I'm using the 64-bit Ubuntu desktop iso.
Does anyone know a fix for this?
