Define "doesn't boot". Does it get as far as the grub bootloader? If not, go into the bios, look for secure boot, disable it and try installing again.
Michael Anderson
make sure its booting from the drive
Camden Peterson
Boot again from the USB
Make a partition
dd iso into partition
configure grub to boot from partition
Install over main partition

Ubuntu has weird obvious problems. What is Canonical up to? Are they trying to reduce the number of users before ending the distro?

How are you posting? You can download the distro image on your phone and use Droid drive to host it as a bootable disk

Does Ubuntu's live-USB still work? That can do all kinds of things.

if you can't figure this shit out linux isn't for you. If you want to learn it get a testing pc that you can fuck and wipe over and over again until you know what your doing.

Evan Hernandez
most premade laptop BIOSes only look for the windows bootloader, you will need to add it in yourself manually.
Mason Murphy
considering how retarded the OP is. I don't think he's be able to use virtual box

There's just black screen and "kys tripfags" on it.

installing on virtual box is much different from installing on an actual computer, you dimwits
sometimes the computer will have firmware that rejects the distro and doesn't boot it

I'm a borderline weirdo, but gdi, that's horrible. How much of a neckbeard and pants pissing otaku do you have to be to watch that?
That's not cute, people don't act like that and it's scripted to appeal to autistic men. You really need to be socially inept to not cringe.
