Binary White-listed?

rated 0 times [ 0] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 2096 / 3 Years ago, mon, may 3, 2021, 7:15:25

When I try to install on a Win8 64bit using the live CD I get a black screen with the words " Binary Whitelisted". I have searched around but the only thing I found was " add "nomodeset" in grub" Found it here But I am not sure how to do that.

Help appreciated.

When the CD is loading you will a keyboard and white guy in a circle. When you see this, hit a key.

You'll be prompted to select your language, do so.

Hit the F6 key to bring up the Other options,

Use the arrow keys to scroll down to "nomodeset" and hit Enter

Hit Escape to get back

Select "Try Ubuntu without Installing" or "Install Ubuntu" and hit Enter.

If it is a "nomodeset" issue, this will fix it.

Also, since this is a Windows 8 machine, disable Secure Boot in UEFI before you attempt an Ubuntu installation. I've also seen references to Secure Boot causing this error message.
