Okay. Well, the Wiki says either use UNetbootin (awful) or convert it when creating the USB Stick on a mac. I can try if it works by directly dding the iso
Ben64 2017-03-01 20:48:42
where does it say that on wiki

Which is linked from here: https://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-macos
Ben64 2017-03-01 20:49:19
that says on macbook
Ben64 2017-03-01 20:49:33
we already established you're not installing on to a macbook
elias_a 2017-03-01 20:50:21
Ben64: You are not reading the wiki page, are you?
elias_a 2017-03-01 20:50:47
Ben64: That describes the process of creating the bootable USB stick. :)
Ben64 2017-03-01 20:50:49
you're not reading the title, are y ou?
elias_a 2017-03-01 20:52:03
Ben64: Read the stuff under "Manual approach". That is most clearly a process how to make a bootable stick. :)

markus-k 2017-03-01 20:57:34
I'll try the dd'ed iso
markus-k 2017-03-01 20:58:11
But I don't see why its wrong when the converted works on other machines
markus-k 2017-03-01 21:04:50
Okay, that makes no difference. But I just figured it starts without nolapic when i just leave it there for ages
alkisg 2017-03-01 21:12:01
markus-k: it starts into the GUI mode? Then, check `dmesg` for a possible cause of the big delay
markus-k 2017-03-01 21:12:14
But the installer can't mount the cd...
markus-k 2017-03-01 21:12:26
It's booting to ncurses mode
alkisg 2017-03-01 21:12:45
dmesg | nc termbin.com 9999
alkisg 2017-03-01 21:12:54
This will upload your dmesg to a site, so that we'll see it
markus-k 2017-03-01 21:12:58
But it takes 5 minutes or so to do so
markus-k 2017-03-01 21:13:25
Detecting hardware was stuck for another 3-5 minutes, maybe something is wrong with the hardware
markus-k 2017-03-01 21:16:02
Whoa, it detects hundreds of new USB devices... sadly I don't have internet on the machine
