[SOLVED] Error during installation on HDD

[petsam]

After the basic info (username, password) I had this error and the installer exited.
Any ideas?

Run the live iso.
You have two choices then.
1. If your machine has BIOS, run the old installer:

Code Select Expand

sudo sparkylinux-installer gui
2. If your machine has UEFI:
Remove the present live-installer:

Code Select Expand

sudo apt-get purge live-installer
Just in case to make sure its clear:

Code Select Expand

sudo rm -rf /usr/lib/live-installer
Install the latest version of the live installer:

Code Select Expand

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install live-installer

Thanks. I did the noEFI install. It' s UP and running.
After some days using it I  'll be back, I hope not for problems solving.
