Hi,
I just got my UP2 and I'm trying to install the ubilinux distribution. used Rufus to burn the thumb drive which actually boots up fine and gives me the ubilinux installer menu. however doesn't matter which option I choose it's always looping back booting the same installer menu.

any suggestions?
thanks

    Tried Ubuntu 16.04 with same results. got to the GRUB menu. no matter which option I choose it always loops back to the menu after rebooting.

    I am getting the same for Ubuntu 18.04 server, were you guys able to figure this out? It goes to a blank screen with "Couldn't get size: 000000000x......." for about .5 of a second.

    Turns out that my issue was the power supply. I was running it off a universal power adapter rated at 5v 2.1a. Weird because I was able to install/update to latest BIOS just fine... Once I plugged in the adapter I bought with it (5v 6a), it installed both Ubuntu 16.04/18.04 just fine
