ubuntu 12.10 installation failure
- by Eidelmaim
Here i am asking this question again because someone deemed it a duplicate to another topic which i over looked and NOTHING AT ALL in that topic pertained to my problem. If your going to close a topic believing it is a duplicate at least do somke reasearch into WHY you think its a duplicate and provide a like to a better source.
How do i get past this installation username and password issue? I downloaded ubuntu 12.10 directly from Ubuntu.com and created a bootable USB with linuxlive. after loading the boot drive and ubuntu begins, it goes directly from the purple ubuntu startup screen directly to a black DOS like prompt asking for a ubuntu login. this is COMPLETLY before any installation -begins. i need some help with this.
FYI : this is what it is saying after it goes to the login area in the DOS (Full black screen) like screen.
Ubuntu 12.10 ubuntu tty1
ubuntu login:
now i will provide a few images of the problem i am having. and because i DONT HAVE ANY OS on the computer BECAUSE ubuntu WONT go PAST this... i have to snap these pictuires with a cell phone and upload on another PC.
these links are in chronological order from time of pressing power button to time i am presented with log in screen :
image 1
image 2
can only post 2 links in messages... will post additional links in comments
So, again... how do i get past this ? this is entireley before ubuntu is installed on my system.
my PC specs...
Homebuilt computer:
Motherboard is a Asus Sabertooth x58 with a intel core i7 processor.
Mushkin memory @ 12gbs.
4ea. Seagate 150gb hard drives.
nvidia GTX 260 graphics card.
i initially attempted to install to raid 5. failed. i broke down the raid and attempted to install to a single drive with all other drives disconnected from the PC.
again, thanks in advanced for any assistance.
