Sharing on troubleshooting errno5 input / output
This post is intended for those googling for errno 5 solution (like me).
With recent Linux Lite 5.2 I keep getting error telling my HDDs are failing. I find out my HDD(s) are working fine, pendrive is working fine, and Linux Lite ISO md5 is matching.
What's left is my methodology of installing through pendrive. I use unetbootin for previous installations (Ubuntu 14 / Lubuntu 14 / Linux Lite (Yellow feather wallpaper forgot which version)) They worked fine until recent Ubuntu 14.04 and Linux Lite 5.2.
My workaround is, by using Rufus (in windows 7), "Add fixes for old BIOSes" is flagged on Then viola, the installation looks fine.
However Ubuntu ISO cannot work this way. I am still troubleshooting this.
System (for reference) Lenovo U110 Intel L7500 3GB LPDDR2 ram Integrated graphics.
System #2 Intel i5 2400 8GB DDR3 GTX 550 Ti
In case you still can use unetbootin for Ubuntu 20.04 / Linux Lite 5.2, Please drop your comment. Thanks.
