(Personally, I don't trust the automatic installer for this type of install.) Once your booted into live Mint, use command listed above to confirm the proper mode again, then try installing again as you did in the "Something else" attempt. Choose whatever is NOT the UEFI boot mode.

It varies by manufacturer, so you may need to refer to user manual for your system.) Once you get the Boot Menu, you should see a choice for booting the USB in UEFI mode and another in non-UEFI mode - I don't know what exact wording will say for that. If gets you into Main Settings, maybe, or, or gets you the boot menu. I'm talking about the second one - the Boot Menu. Usually there is a key to get into the main UEFI/(BIOS) settings and another key that invokes a per session Boot Menu.

If "efi" is not listed, then that shoots my whole theory out the window and I have no idea why the install won't work for you.Īssuming you do see "efi" listed, reboot computer (with live USB connected) and hit whatever key you need to get the Boot Menu to show.
#Gparted live usb stuck how to
If you see "efi" listed in the output, that means the USB was booted in UEFI/EFI mode and you need to figure out how to boot it in Legacy mode instead.
(Most UEFI-based systems can boot in either mode, but any BIOS-based computer won't be able to boot a USB stick installed in UEFI mode.)īoot with live USB in same way that you have been, open a terminal and enter this command: Since you're planning to use the USB stick in various computers, it would indeed be best to install in Legacy mode, but you need to make sure the live USB gets booted that way first. Is the computer you're doing this on a relatively new computer (2-3 years old or newer)? Does it have UEFI firmware instead of the old BIOS firmware? If so, then maybe your ending up with the live USB booted in UEFI mode, but it gets stuck because you are trying to install in Legacy mode (as indicated by the partition setup you're trying for). Since you don't appear to be doing anything wrong, I'm just going to make a wild guess. And you even remembered to change the "device for boot loader installation" to the correct device (/dev/sdc) - which many people forget about. Even after removing all partitions/ adding new ones changing the file systems it always looses 7 gb in gparted.Įven though I suspect you already did this, I have to ask: did you confirm that the md5sum of the ISO file you downloaded to make your live USB matched the one shown on the download page? If not, do that just to make sure you don't have a corrupted ISO file.įrom your screenshots, it certainly looks like you're doing everything correctly.
I've posted the errors and the error in the little terminal screen in case it helps.Īlso may be worth noting that I have a strange error and don't know if it is related but if I open the stick in Disks it shows 124gb (correct) but in Gparted or windows it shows 117gb.
