need help with Unbuntu
 

does anyone use this or have experience using it.

im trying to get it up and running through a usb and it gives me an error after rebooting.

says something about a proper digital signature

Stupid question but did you used the proper utility to have it boot via USB? (i.e. you didn't just copy the ISO to a USB drive and tried to boot it)

Otherwise,

Booting Ubuntu from USB, "Digital Signature not found"

I have been using ubuntu from 10.1x time.
USB Ubuntu is a bitch to set up, it works on one PC, doesn't mean it will work on others. It is worse if you want it boot with USB3.0

Download all the files from one source, I downloaded mine from piratebay, it is just simple few clicks. Make sure you use a thumb drive that reads 4K files quick enough. I had Adata S102 before my sandisk extreme, it takes several minutes to boot up.

yea i was trying to boot from USB


what do you mean "all files?" isnt it just the iso file?
and im not sure if mine can read 4k files quick. i just have generic 16gb, so im guessing no?

it will include iso and program that install ubuntu and make your usb bootable

Are you trying to boot a "liveCD" from the USB, are you trying to install from USB or are you trying to install it onto a USB like you would a HDD?

No. When you want to boot with USB, you need to use their utility to set up the ISO onto the USB so that it boots. If you just copy the ISO to the USB drive, BIOS/UEFI won't do anything.

i used this http://www . pendrivelinux .com/universal-usb-installer-easy-as-1-2-3/ to put it on my usb. then i booted my comp and then got that error after selecting to boot usb first

Ah gotcha thanks for clarifying.

And I'm assuming that link in the second post didn't work?

Things I'd try are another usb port, then another usb drive, then redoing the process with a new iso download. Other than that I'm out of ideas.

I'm assuming you followed this guide? How to create a bootable USB stick on Windows | Ubuntu

I've been using Ubuntu for almost a year on my old laptop. It's a lot smoother than it was with Vista. I can still boot to Vista though in case I felt like it.

Ubuntu is a great alternative OS, too bad the general public knows nothing about it.
