I recently tried to install Ubuntu 14.04 on my home computer.
I downloaded the ISO and loaded it onto a compatible USB.
However I get errors when I try to boot Ubuntu.

After browsing this forum I decided that it was probably an incompatibility with my GTX970.
I got nouveau errors, which was fixed by replacing "quiet splash" in the Linux boot line with "text". I found this solution on another post. It only created a new page of errors.

Can anyone please help me to install Ubuntu?

Boot from the USB.

  • Highlight "Try Ubuntu without installing".
  • Press the E key.
  • Add nouveau.modeset=0 to the end of the linux line.
  • Press the F10 key to boot into the Live desktop.

Perform the installation.

When the Ubuntu system installation process is finished,
unplug the USB and boot into the installed Ubuntu OS.

  • Highlight the "Ubuntu" GRUB menu entry.
  • Press the E key.
  • Add nouveau.modeset=0 to the end of the linux line.
  • Press the F10 key to boot into the Ubuntu system.

First of all ... install the NVIDIA drivers.
