Thumbs up OS installer stops working!


Heya.
I had a problem to the main partition, so i reinstalled the only OS i had on USB drive (KaOS), but i want KDE Neon, so i tried to reinstall it via live cd (like always) but the installer just stops working when i click on "next".

(this is not my screen)

I tried three different versions, w/ and w/o UEFI, two different USB drives; i tried on virtual machine and it works just fine. What the frickle is goin' on?

EDIT: That's what i have on kde neon live CD's terminal:

i see "ata2.00" something to do with your hard drive?
and what distro are you trying to install? link? (kde neon likely has NOTHING to do with this).

IKR? It strange to think that KDE Neon is the problem but i installed w/ no problems OpenSUSE and KaOS, it's kinda strange; but i think it was just some partitions problem, i formatted 'em all with the terminal and recreated 'em, after that KDE Neon was again able to install.
Probably it happened bec' before i was editing partitions but GParted crashed...

hmm, maybe i'm getting this wrong.
is kde neon an actual distro, or a desktop environment? are you trying to install a distro named kde neon?

KDE is a DE, KDE Neon is a distro.

well the best thing would be to start digging kde neon's documentation / wiki/ forums etc.
or, if you know what it's based on, and if it uses the same installer, you could start digging that.
alround more information is needed in any case, also about your machine etc.

but please, don't dump any lspci output on me now, do some research, and if that doesn't helkp, and only then, report back in full detail.
