Can not mount /dev/loop0 (/cdrom/casper/filesystem.squashfs)
- by simpleton
I downloaded 12.04.1 and md5 sum checked them and everything is good.
Made a live usb and booted up...
Just gets to where its about to start with the purple ubuntu loading screen then it goes back to text and gives this message:
BusyBox v1.18.5 (Ubuntu 1:1.18.5-1ubuntu4) built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.
(initramfs) mount: mounting /dev/loop0 on ///filesystem.squashfs failed: Input/output error Can not mount /dev/loop0 (/cdrom/casper/filesystem.squashfs) on //filesystem.squashfs
This happens in the live option, or persistent even the file checking one doesn't work
Also I've tried a few different F6 options to no avail.
I used 'LiLi USB creator' and 'unetbootin' and also 'Universal USB Installer,' all with the same results. I've also tried using a VM and it showed the same. That is when I figured I had a corrupt .iso so I downloaded it again checked the MD5: e235b63c02644e219b7bf3668f479c9e. Only I'm having the same problem.
I'm just about ready to give up on 12.04.1 and just go back to 10.04 utill the next LTS comes out.
I've got a dell mini 10 btw.
Thanks for your time.
