I tried to make a live USB of Lubuntu 12.10 and also of Kubuntu 12.10, but only the boot screen appears. When selected in live mode, the Kubuntu/Lubuntu start screen appears and suddenly stops booting.

I don't understand what the issue is. I tried different flash drives using Fedora USB Creator in UNetbootin. I also downloaded another iso, but had the same issue.

  • Does this answer your question? Why Doesn't a Bootable USB Boot – karel Dec 05 '21 at 13:34
  • I think this is not the useful answer but, get a Windows laptop then open Rufus to create bootable disk using those ISO you have mention, cuz if I make a disk inside Ubuntu (or any Deb-based distros), it would fail all the time, I mean the computer just froze. Also, I think because of your CPU is not strong enough for those distros you've mention – mrlolrus Dec 05 '21 at 10:51

I'm using Linux Mint Cinnamon 64-bit on the same laptop, so it should work for you.

First check the ISO image to be sure it is the same as the one hosted on website (using MD5 checksum).

Then use that ISO file to make a bootable flashdrive using unetbootin.

Then change the boot order using the F2 key - set USB to boot first.

Then reboot.

After installation is complete, change boot order back to HDD first.

If it's a recent laptop it might have secure boot on by default. If that's so, have you tried to deactivate it in your UEFI settings (BIOS)?
