Can't Install Ubuntu 18.04.3 on VirtualBox 6.0
Posted: 17. Aug 2019, 18:19
Ubuntu 18.04.3
VirtualBox 6.0.10
This system is a 64 bit Windows 10 system running on a Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3 UEFI motherboard with an AMD 3.50 GHz FX-6300 six core CPU running with 8GB of DDR3.
The C: Drive is a Kingston SUV400S37240G 240GB SSD with a 4TB D: drive.
The Windows 10 Pro is version 1903, build 18362.267 installed on 9Aug2019 & fully updated.
I successfully installed Xp SP3 with the same settings as I tried to use to install Ubuntu.
I have tried several times to install with the install failing at various points.
1. It has failed to find the Start Up Disk.
2. It has found the Start Up Disk but has failed before I got all the way through the details of my location etc
3. It often stops with a pointer looking like a capital I & will not accept keyboard entry or mouse entry.
4. It has got all the way through the details of my location etc & started to install but the rotating symbol showing that the program is installing just stops dead. Leaving it an hour did not help.
I deleted the Ubuntu completely & tried reinstalling several times.
This last time it has gone through the furtherest ending at this screen:
Installation type
This computer currently has Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS on it. What would you like to do?
O Erase Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS and reinstall
Warning: This will delete all your Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS programs, documents, photos, music, and any other files.
The erase option is selected but it will not accept any further input.
I can click on the top & shut down the Virtual Box Manager.
