Unable to find a medium containing a live file system #233

Open nygage opened 4 years ago

nygage commented 4 years ago

Hello, I've downloaded an elementary OS 5.1 ISO, I've installed wubi and when I reboot to install it it only shows a promt saying: "unable to find a medium containing a live file system". What can I do?

I think it could be related to #183 I dont know if it could be related but with 5.0 ISO Wubi installs it as WubiSHA256 and with 5.1 with Wubi LZ Thanks

I dont know if it could be related but with 5.0 ISO Wubi installs it as WubiSHA256 and with 5.1 with Wubi LZ The difference between Wubi SHA256 and Wubi lz is the name of the hash sum file on ISO.

Wubi SHA256 needs file SHA256SUMS and Wubi lz needs file md5sum.txt. see [here}(https://github.com/hakuna-m/wubiuefi/wiki#various-distrosversions)

i.e. OS 5.1 has a file md5sum.txt on ISO or Wubiuefi uses another ISO. Does the folder with the Wubiuefi exe file contain more than one ISO file ? see here

I think it could be related to #183

The relation to #183 is that Elementary OS is not directly supported by Wubiuefi.
