I know the discussion here where they are not getting the same error as me.

I use Lenovo ThinkPad X60.

The default partition table: sd1 ext4 53.91GB, sd2 extended 1.99GB and sd5 swap 1.99GB.

I get Input/output error during read on/dev/sda` when trying to install from live CD -mode and when trying to install directly. I get the error normally at the stage of choosing time zone or very last at choosing the keyboard layout. Then there is the box with buttons: Back, Ignore and Continue. None of them enable the procedure to go forward, so I need to cancel it.

How can you install Ubuntu to an SSD?

SSD contains more electronics than an usual hdd, be sure that the firmware of your SSD is up to date otherwise this can be considered "a normal behaviour"; from this point of view the standard hdd are way more reliable than an SSD.
