I have limited experience with installing OS's, being that I've only played around with Windows XP many years ago.

So, I created the image on usb and it appeared that Ubuntu installed successfully. The install process then required me to restart to complete installation. Which I did.

Upon restart there was prompt displaying the below;

[  3.667475] platform MSFT0101:00: failed to claim resource 1
[  3.667482] acpi MSFT0101:00: platform device creation failed: -16
[ 13.034441] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: preinit failed with -22
[ 13.034487] nouveau DRM:00000000:00000080: init failed with -22

I wasn't sure what to do (I'm hoping my next action didn't ruin the install), so I restarted the machine.

Upon startup there was a prompt with a few options though I selected the first to load Ubuntu (I think), though now whenever I try to boot Ubuntu it directs me to the grub prompt screen.

I've had a look at the directories available and there is only 1 that says the filesystem is FAT...

So, I need help!?!?! Greatly appreciate any responses & assistance for this.

thanks.

Well, this isn't an answer though currently I'm writing this in my Ubuntu instance. I have no idea what went wrong, all I did was log into Windows, wrote my question, logged back out about an hour later and tried to re-launch Ubuntu to which now it has initiated successfully and I'm able to use.

Thanks -
