Some more searching led me to https://github.com/pop-os/iso/issues/224, where my sentiment seems to be confirmed: the /cdrom/casper directory isn't present anywhere on the filesystem, nor is the filesystem.manifest-remove
file.
This issue has been automatically marked as stale because it has not had recent activity. It will be closed if no further activity occurs. Thank you for your contributions.
This is still an issue.

This is still an issue
Still an issue with pop os 22.04 (live-popos.ipxe
).
And w/o a note or removal from menu
just like me now 🤷
Describe the bug
I am able to install from the LiveCD boot of neither elementaryOS nor Pop_OS.
To Reproduce
Launch the Live CD boot of either of these -- latest versions, both -- and proceed through installation. I have three partitions: a 1 GB EFI partition, an 8 GB swap partition, and the remainder of a 480 GB SATA SSD allocated to the installation. There is one other SATA drive connected (a Windows installation). I used the "erase everything" option for both and chose the 480 GB SSD.
Expected behavior
Installation would proceed as normal.
Additional context
This is the log output from the installer in Pop_OS. The output at is more verbose in Pop_OS but ultimately the ~same at the end: a file is not openable.
Looking at
/cdrom
, it's empty:I speculate that the method used for booting these Ubuntu/Debian derivatives is causing something to be missing that their installers expect that perhaps the Ubuntu/Debian installer does not, or that this particular method of booting -- LiveCD via PXE -- doesn't play nice with LiveCD installers at all and that I should be choosing something from the "Linux Network Installs", which does not include elementaryOS or Pop_OS.
