Thanks Lee. I had the same issue when I flashed my USB drive using Raspberry Pi Imager. When I tried the same thing second time, it worked without any problems.
Thank you Lee! How I made it work: From my Windows 11 PC I Downloaded Ubuntu 24.04 from Ubuntu website. Flashed image to SD card with Belena Etcher. Installed SD card in Pi5 and ran through the setup as prompted. Once everything worked and after I rebooted a few times to make sure; I removed the SD card (with the working Ubuntu OS) and went back to my Windows PC. I then used Belena Etcher's "Clone Drive" option to clone the SD card to an NVMe SSD via usb adapters. After the "clone drive" finished I added the line "dtparam=pciex1_gen3" to the "config.txt" file on the NVMe version. I then installed the NVMe drive in my Pi5 Pimoroni NVME Base, powered on the Pi5, said a prayer and BOOM! Ubuntu 24.04 booted and ran normally from the NVME Drive.
Thanks for the video. I had a same issue when I flashed the NVMe drive with the manually downloaded ubuntu image. However, last evening it became available to download through pi imager. It worked for some reason.
Hi Lee I am using 24.04 LTS on an old i5 pc and also put KDE Plasma on as I use you version on the Pi 5 with a NVMe, and its nice to swap from one to another looking the same. Interesting video good job.
Got Ubuntu 24.04 to finally run on my Pi 5. I used the iDsonix M.2 NVMe usb adapter on my windows 11 laptop then I opened raspberry pi imager, selected pi 5 and the Ubuntu 24.4 desktop image and then wrote it to a patriots 512GB NVMe. Aftter completion I connected the NVMe drive to my Pi5 with a NVMe hat and it booted. The initial installation screen graphics was corrupted but after that everything went well and it works!
Great info. I tried to load 22-04 on my drive but ended up in failure. I'll try it using Etcher. Thanks.
Lee, thanks for the video! I may try nvme soon. I actually found your video searching for wimaxit touchscreen. I’m wondering if touch is working for you. I have older 15.6” wimaxit touchscreens and can’t get the touch working in Ubuntu 24.04 on my pi5. They’re intermittent at best and registration is way off. Cheers!
Thanks Lee for the Ubuntu update video on the Raspberry Pi V. This as I am trying to set up my new “SteamDeck” …that being said maybe I won’t hit the Palm Tree on GTAV…my goal is to crash the whole game…😂! Have a great day!
i used raspberry pi imager and thier 24.04 onto my crucial p3 plus 1tb had 0 issue booting i use an nvme base from pimoroni.
I was wrestling with this very problem on one of my Pi5 units last weekend. Ubuntu 24.x LTS definitely looks promising, but even on SD card right now, it seems to get a bit flakey after an hour or two of regular use. Fingers crossed these are just teething problems.
Ubuntu 24.04 LTS is still unstable for Raspberry 5 4GB. The boot is during about 1:30 minutes and the dark theme doesn't work some times. This is what I realized until now.
Hello Lee, I was wondering if you know if there are disabled cores on the rPi5 processor? I ran a utility on mine and it said it was a 6 core with 2 disabled.
Great video Lee .. wonder why raspberry pi imager and gnome disks encounter an error.. I tried it and I failed too.. etcher fixed it though. Thanks. By the way Lee, vulkan drivers and config are really not further optimisable for the pis. And if I had to optimise it further, I would really need to fork the unstable debian branches and configure alot of things which may undermine stability of the operating system.. and provided.. compatibility issues like on Ubuntu.. so I am planning to drop the idea towards gaming side of crimson OS.. will let you know if I find any work arounds.. for now the plan is dropped.. hope u understand.. Thanks, Pradyot Pachore
Did you try Pikiss it gives a few options when installing vulkan
@@leepspvideo will try but maybe not anytime soon.. as I too am having a bit of a busy schedule to be honest.. as a young creator I also have to maintain the balance between this computer world and the actual one.. so I may start any suggestions and further tries when I am free of this tiresome schedule. Hope you understand .
So, to be clear, the process for ubuntu 20.04 on the pi 5 is... Balena Etcher to write the ubuntu-24.04-preinstalled-desktop-arm64+raspi.img.xz to an SD card, boot the card in the pi and complete the install until the pi restarts and logs in properly, remove SD from the pi, use a card reader and a USB-nvme adapter to copy the SD bit-for-bit onto the nvme, put the nvme on the pi and boot :)
Perfectly straightforward.
@@acubley I was going to do the same. But I wanted to try my luck with Pi Imager where Ubuntu 24.04 became available. To my surprise, it worked with no issues for my NVMe drive.
I experienced the same issue when trying to write to an sd card on a raspberry pi 4 with the image downloaded from Ubuntu’s website. Didn’t have an issue when writing to an sd card using the raspberry pi imager and downloading/writing the image using that program.
That's exactly what I ended up doing.
Nothing works for me, tried everything mentioned on the video and the comments, whatever type of drive I use (so, usb, nvme), whatever vehicle for burning image (pi imager, ballena etcher) I can never complete the initial installation of ubuntu 24.04 on my raspberry pi 5 8gb. I never even see the screen with the glitched graphics. Just when this window is supposed to be displayed I have only the background screen with the little circle rotating suggesting some process is being carried out, eventually the ‘failed instalation’ error pop up comes up following the same login issues after the reboot (no credentials accepted, tried a few times even without setting any credentials but it asks for them anyway and doesn’t accept anything). Tried to flash images on ubuntu 22.04 LTS and on mac. Just out of curiosity tried to set ubuntu 23.10 to see if it works and worked the first time from an sd card (32GB). Very annoying… I hope this gets fixed with some update, the image shipped for this process is obviously far from perfect.
Had the same issue installing for a RPi 4, can't remember if I used Rufus or Balena Etcher to install successfully. Now it's availabe in rpi-imager I'll haver to try this.
i wonder if its just that, ubuntu uses cloudinit,.and even though raspberry pi os does something similar, the config file being creates by rpi imager could be breaking the install?
Got the same error at first. However, my pi is set to boot from USB, then nvme, then sd card. With Raspberry pi os booted from a USB drive, directly imaging to the mounted nvme worked. Was able to remove the USB drive and it booted into Ubuntu and set up fine.
Yea, there are several weird issues with the latest installer that I’ve unsuccessfully fought.
I ran into the same issue with nvme install and it not saving credentials. I re-installed with pi imager and it seemed to resolve itself somehow...
I installed 2404 on an SD card on my Pi 5 (which itself boots from an NVME SSD) using rpi-imager. I then booted it on the Pi 5 and ran an update. When I transferred that to a CM4, it came up but the USB keyboard and mouse were not working. I ran a previous version of Ubuntu on this H/W, booting from an NVME SSD.
With all the hiccups resolved. The Pi5 might actually can be a desktop replacement for someone with Ubuntu 24.04 LTS. I hope Vulkan will be supported like in RaspberryPiOS.
at @4:01 It says it is the development branch. It is a beta?
Thanks. Unfortunately it seems there is no XFCE desktop for Ubuntu 24.04 Pi version. Do you agree ? The interest should be to install Ubuntu on PI 4.
I haven’t tried changing from Gnome
Have you tried using gparted to format the disk and then use raspberry pi imager or gnome-disks to restore the ubuntu image.?
I haven’t I stopped trying when I had a solution. I’m sure it will get updated
Im sure i got it working when stuck with root root user passwd, but had smae hass le when writing nvme on beta version
can you make a video on switch emulation on the raspberry pi 5 please
I have installed it but haven’t had a game run yet
I was able to use pi imager on my windows pc to install onto a USB SSD just fine using 24.04
Strange, I had the same results Ona 2.5” ssd
Only tried 20.04 via an SD card on Rpi5 so far. Found problems with Remote Desktop and connecting to a Win 11 Pro PC, most time the Win PC would not connect. Also video playback from KZhead and iplayer drops too many frames. Does booting from an NVME improve these issues?
They don’t seem to be related to storage issues. Mostly with nvme the os just feels more responsive
🙋
Have you tried mounting the drive under another system and manually editing the password and shadow files?
I haven’t, I stopped when I found a solution
I was able to do an offline install with an NVME drive for my Pi 5
I think Ubuntu has changed over the years and pure Linux users are moving away, mainly because of snaps. There are other distros that can do better such as Arch based or even Void Linux, for those who wants a taste of Non systemd system.
I'm getting the "installation error" popup even on sd card. What am I missing? Bootloader version !!??
Toms hardware also has information on this www.tomshardware.com/raspberry-pi/ubuntu-2404-on-raspberry-pi-has-intermittent-installation-issues
i need install ubuntu 24.04 lts in safe mode or installer crash randomly in my computer.
Its often the case when the new one is released
Unfortunately, Balena didn't work for me either. I just get the spinning circle after burning with Balena
That’s strange, what drive/PCIe device were you using?
@@leepspvideo I'm using a Pinedrive NVME and a UGREEN USB adapter.
@@makerbymistake from the comments there are many with and without success with 24.04 pretty much everything else has been fine for me on Pi 5
Sad i was expecting to see tanya for a bit in red alert
It's nearly 30 years old. Came out 1995! A favourite of LAN parties
Try installing on the SD as you have, then remove it from the pi and DD copy it to the nvme ;)
@leepsvideo
It was one of my options if Balena etcher hadn’t worked
I'd format the drive before burning to it
I did try that with imager
