[CoLoCo] Ubuntu-us-co Digest, Vol 60, Issue 3

[Simon Engelbert]

I would suggest creating a live usb of ubuntu 12.04 from unetbootin (Google
for it) as I always seem to have better all around luck with it

Once booted on the live usb try to install to the 16gb drive. You can
format the 4gb drive from the live usb or your new installation via
gparted. If you have issues/crashes please provide details back to us

Thanks,

Simon
