Hi Vijay,

Your description shows a series of squashfs errors. This happens due to the corrupted download of the Ubuntu ISO file as a result of poor internet connectivity. Please download the Ubuntu 18.04 ISO file again using this link <a href="https://releases.ubuntu.com/18.04/ubuntu-18.04.5-desktop-amd64.iso" target="" title="">https://releases.ubuntu.com/18.04/ubuntu-18.04.5-desktop-amd64.iso</a> and try installing. Ensure good connectivity throughout the download otherwise it may result in the same error.

Alternatively, you could also use the newer Ubuntu version 20.04; ISO file link: <a href="https://releases.ubuntu.com/20.04/ubuntu-20.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso" target="" title="">https://releases.ubuntu.com/20.04/ubuntu-20.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso</a>

Regards,
Ashley
