i recently downloaded the ubuntu dekstop 14.0.4 LTS (32 bit) and everything was going well .......i burnt the iso file into a cd n even the ubuntu was working fine through the cd but after i installed it ....it said installation completed and the system need to restart and after pressing restart button ..it tells me to remove the cd and hit enter and i did it but after restart it says >>> " busy box v1.21.1 (ubuntu 1:1.21.0-1ubuntu1) built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built in commands.
(initramfs) unable to find a medium containing a live file system."
does anyone have the solution to this ???? i've searched on google but no success!!!
Easiest way to solve it is probably just to do a reinstall. You did try that, right?

Strange, maybe 14.04 isn't compatible with your hardware somehow. Try 12.04 LTS

Reboot Part:
Now after you chosen that click next and the installation will begin let wubi do it's work, after the Download have finished you can choose from Reboot Now or Reboot manually later! I recommend the first option: Reboot now so go ahead and click on that!

Shut down your pc if you are in Ubuntu if you already in Windows skip the ubuntu shut down part In Windows go to Configuration Panel and click on programma's after that search for ubuntu or Wubi and left mouse click on it and click on uninstall! so was that easy or not!

Actually, the link you've now included is just the 1.40MB sized WUBI installer.
The Ubuntu disk image specified here : http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop has the file WUBI already included inside the ISO file. So downloading this is what is needed.
Installed using only the Wubi file and it's working amazing!

For windows 95 and 98 need't require rooted device.

Is anyone having problems installing Linux to a PC recently? I have heard of possible issues with PCs that ship with Windows 8, but this Inspiron N5050 came with Win. 7, and has even been certified by Ubuntu to run Ubuntu perfectly. But i've tried Ubuntu 12.10 and maybe 3 different versions of Linux Mint, and they all hang during the install.
Basically they get to the screen where you input your name and a password, at the bottom it shows progress, like creating the file system, copying files, but it basically just stops there... you click continue and nothing happens, and all activity seems to halt for a long long time. Anyone know anything about this? I've read of some others having this issue with Linux Mint 14, but that's all i can find... and no fixes.
I really want to solve this if possible, i didn't get this laptop to run only Windows
Maybe you can try to install Ubuntu on Windows (wubi) or do another partition on your comp.
Hope it helps

Thanks for the reply. I didn't try wubi, i wanted it to have it's own partition alongside Windows, and no matter what i did, the different versions of Ubuntu and Mint would all hang during the installation. In the end Debian ended up installing fine., maybe since it seems to have a different installer. Guess i'll give that a whirl now, i still hope i find out what the issue is with this machine.

If you can revert back the changes with ubuntu commands as normal then the only thing is to wipe reinstall...
You can't access terminal at all
sent from
TF-101 A.R.H.D Harmony Kernel w/KingBeatz
Samsung Galaxy S3
AOKP 4.2.2 Kt747 kernel w/KingBeatz
So there is no way to boot into command line ? Too bad..
Is there a way to only fresh install Ubuntu and not android?

Yes with the tubuntu app use the update rootfs option, it allows you to update android or ubuntu separately

The rootfs option doesn't work..x3maniac is aware. In the meantime use this on the assumption the partition layouts are all the same. You do need the tubuntu app to get wheelie and nvflash commands.

I've searched and not found a reasonable or usable solution to this. I installed Cygwin, installing everything. But when I try to run Android Kitchen, I constantly get the error of java not being installed, even though it is. Am I installing Cygwin wrong, or what?

Try to type "java" in the cygwin command line, do you see the correct output (help) from Java?

Yes I see that now. Now it's saying clear can't be found, so I still can't run Android Kitchen.

Make sure that all required executables are available through the PATH environment variable. You can type "echo $PATH" in the command line to see current paths.

Here's what doing that came up with.
Code:

$ echo $PATH
/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/cygdrive/c/Program Files (x86)/Intel/iCLS Client:/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Intel/iCLS Client:/cygdrive/c/Windows/system32:/cygdrive/c/Windows:/cygdrive/c/Windows/System32/Wbem:/cygdrive/c/Windows/System32/WindowsPowerShell/v1.0:/cygdrive/c/Program Files (x86)/Intel/OpenCL SDK/2.0/bin/x86:/cygdrive/c/Program Files (x86)/Intel/OpenCL SDK/2.0/bin/x64:/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Intel/Intel(R) Management Engine Components/DAL:/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Intel/Intel(R) Management Engine Components/IPT:/cygdrive/c/Program Files (x86)/Intel/Intel(R) Management Engine Components/DAL:/cygdrive/c/Program Files (x86)/Intel/Intel(R) Management Engine Components/IPT:/usr/lib/lapack

For the "clear", try to install the ncurses (in the Utils category).
Ok, now the java issue is back. I tried doing a reinstall of Cygwin, went ahead and changed the path to java, and still getting the java missing error. I know working in Windows 8 doesn't help, but still.

It's strange, but there is no magic... So just find where java is installed on your system (someting like Program Files\Java\jre7\bin), and make sure that it is accessable through the PATH in Windows. And then restart cygwin and type "java", and it should work.
I'm still not having any luck installing a working version of this. Deleted the install again and reinstalled the whole deal. Now theres no bash_profile file to change the java thing. Ugh! How many times does it take to install this application?
Ok, started from scratch. Followed the install directions here to a "t". But the error "java not found" keeps coming upi. If it helps, I'm running Windows 8 64 bit on a brand new computer. My java installs are fresh and the newest.
Am I just missing something since I was running Cygwin on another computer?
Try to modify PATH manually.
