[Bug 1547286] Re: 16.04 installer can't get past "Force UEFI installation"
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 1418706 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1418706 Had the "stuck Back/Continue buttons" problem on a new Z370 rig. I did not get to try #11 or #16 yet. What fixed it for me was realizing that the USB stick was still auto-booting into UEFI mode (with CSM support fully enabled), hence altering the whole Xubuntu 16.04 installation process! As soon as I explicitly booted from the USB in Legacy mode using the boot menu (F12), the installer had no more problems creating the legacy, MBR-based partitions I originally wanted it to do. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1547286 Title: 16.04 installer can't get past "Force UEFI installation" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1547286/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 1418706 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1418706 Short answer: I was able to fix this issue by plugging my hard drive into another SATA connection on the motherboard. Long answer: I tried potential fixes listed in responses 11, 17, and 18 but it still didn't work. Gparted recognized the drive, but wouldn't allow me to create a partition table or format due a sych failure. I had issues in the past with some of the SATA connections on the motherboard before (ASUS M4A89TD Pro Series) so I just moved the connection from 5 to 0 (there are 6 connections directly on the motherboard). Not sure of the underlying cause for other users, but for me it was the SATA connection or BIOS setting on the motherboard preventing me from formatting or partitioning the hard drive but still allowing Ubuntu to recognize it was there. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1547286 Title: 16.04 installer can't get past "Force UEFI installation" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1547286/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I'm installing only Ubuntu on this bare drive, so I'm not sure why this is popping up but - it's two issues. My computer is set to UEFI only mode. + it's two issues. My computer is set to UEFI only mode and this only + happens when I select "Something Else" in order to setup manual + partitioning. What happens: 1) "Force UEFI installation?" pops up even though this is a bare drive without anything else on it. I did attempt to dd a 250GB SSD to it, but that failed so I wiped the drive. 2) I cannot get past this Force UEFI page. Neither the "Go Back" nor the "Continue" button do anything. What is expected to happen: Either don't pop up this message since I've no other OS installed, or clicking the "Go Back" button should go back and the "Continue" button should force the UEFI installation. - On a side note, this screen says "If you continue to install Debian in UEFI mode, " which should probably say Ubuntu instead of Debian.
