Title:
  "The installer encountered an unrecoverable error" message when
  booting

Status in Ubuntu GNOME:
  New
Status in syslinux package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I downloaded the Ubuntu GNOME 16.04 Beta 2 http://cdimage.ubuntu.com
  /ubuntu-gnome/daily-live/20160322/xenial-desktop-i386.iso image,
  launched it in a VM, waited, got to a black screen where my mouse was
  visible and then got this:

      Testing_Case_Installation_Failed.png

  When I clicked "OK" and it took me to the desktop session it promised
  I was not able to launch Terminal through any means (keyboard shortcut
  and Activities Overview). I had to collect the information for this
  report using a TTY which I luckily was able switch to. Though I found
  that other applications such as apport and Firefox would run.
