[Bug 1344265] [NEW] Ubuntu 14.04 crashes on installation errno 30 target/boot/vlimuz

[Anthony d]

Public bug reported:

When trying to install Ubuntu 14.04 on my laptop, the installation
crashes giving me the message:

The installer encoutered an error copying files to the hard disk:

[Errno 30]Read-only file system:
'/target/boot/vmlinuz-3.13.0-24-generic'

This is often due to a faulty hard disk. It may help to check whether
the hard disk is old and in need of replacement, or to move the system
to a cooler environment.
