I am trying to install Ubuntu 12.04 by creating a USB Boot Disk. I am using a 500 GB External Hard-drive ("Elements"). I get through the first part of using the start-up disk creator. I select Ubuntu 12.04 "Precise Pangolin" as the ISO, and my external hard-drive, which has 150 GB free, as the disc to use. I hit "Make Startup Disc". It asks me for authentication before I can copy files, and that part works. Then after copying files, it asks for authentication again to install the boot loader. At this point, it immediately says "Failed to install the bootloader." Any idea why I am having a problem?
