I am trying to install Ubuntu 22.04 on my PC via an USB live-stick, but the installation hangs right from the beginning. After I select "Install or try Ubuntu" from GRUB the lines "...[sdb] No Caching mode page found" and "...[sdb] Assuming drive cache: write through" appear and then the installation hangs.

My PC is a bit old and I had to convert my USB live-stick partition to MBR as described here: can not install from usb with error cannot find grub_platform. Before I got also the "error cannot find grub_platform"-error.

My system:

  1. Mainboard: Gigabyte Technology X58A-UD7
  2. CPU: i7 920
  3. GPU: GeForce GTX 970
  4. HD: Samsung SSD

The ubuntu 22.04 installer frankly sucks. They mixed it--for some idiotic reason--with the try option. I can't get the installer past the language selection and I've installed Ubuntu hundreds of times.
