Ubuntu Install Error


Recommended Posts

Maybe look at /var/log/installer/syslog and /var/log/syslog like it says in the pic and look for more specific information.

And maybe the cd is faulty... I know that Breezy had an option during the install to check the cd for errors, probably that option is around somewhere in the dapper installation too. I can't remember seeing it though. Just have look around.

Is it a bad CD? We can't tell you. You tell us. Does the md5sum check out?

You likely have the "desktop-1386" version.

As Tiftof mentioned, the error posted said to look into your syslogs for details.

    • I don't think RTSS can show the real framerate. In fact, this is the first time I have ever heard about anything showing it.
    • Yeah, Deck's overlay has CPU temps. Maybe they don't want to rely on external dlls to provide CPU temperature graphs on all machines? From my experience with Rivatuner it can be annoying to select the correct CPU temperature sensor.
    • Why would I be praising Microsoft? You do realize I'm well aware the Gamebar is a stinking pile of crap and has been for years, right? Or are you one of those "if you don't critique something at every turn you area clearly a fanboy" people? Yes, MangoHUD is built into SteamOS's Big Picture mode, and up until a few weeks ago, SteamOS was exclusive to... the Steam Deck... for 3 years. Yet you were talking about it as if you didn't need to set it up yourself, like it was built into other distributions, which it wasn't. So if we ignore the real/fake framerate feature, it's really not much different than me setting up my Rivatuner/HWInfo overlay, is it? Valve had the option of building MangoHUD into Steam, like they are doing it now, for 3 years. So let's not pretend Windows hasn't had a basic way to display your framerate built in, keeping well aware how crap it actually is. And I'm not even counting your GPU driver company, because Nvidia, AMD and Intel have their own (somehow even worse than GameBar) overlays. And of course they won't tell you fake/real framerate, why would Nvidia nor AMD want to tell you? That is absolutely a +1 on Valve.
    • As much as I like the push towards Wayland (is Gnome still bickering about window decorations and "you are doing it wrong"ing rest of the industry?) but as an admin, the fact that the FreeRDP (because VNC is dead) implementation is not functional yet is really annoying, as that is what RHEL10, and Debian13, will be stuck with for the next 3-8 years.
