Some of them are Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Lubuntu, Bodhi, Mint http://www.techandseo.com/2014/06/ubuntu-installation-errno-5-input versions. Each of the Linux OS is having different features to explore. Every OS comes with versatile specifications and the users loves to engage in it which is subjected to their ideas and interest. If you are one of them who like to play with Linux on your PC or Laptop, while installing the Linux OS especially Ubuntu versions, you may face the errno 5 installation problem. During installation, the OS get installed up to 69-73 % and then it get stopped. The error is called as errno 5.[Errno 5] Input/output errorThis particular error is often due to a faulty CD/DVD disk or drive, or a faulty hard disk. It may help to clean the CD/DVD, to burn the CD/DVD at a lower speed, to clean the CD/DVD errno 5 input drive lens (cleaning kits are often available from electronics suppliers), to check whether the hard disk is old and in need of replacement, or to move the system to a cooler environment. I re downloaded the ISO several times, checked the MD5 right after the download and MD5'ed the burned CD (burned at 4x). Everything seemed to be alright, but this message always occurred - around 69-73%.I browsed over Internet and found no solution for this.

I just tried to overwrite the image file by using Poweriso software and surprisingly it works for me. So now I'm going to teach you the procedure for reconstructing the Linux OS ISO image file. There is no risk involved in it. Follow the instructions given below: Install and run Poweriso. Click on Open. Search for ISO image file whichyou have saved on your computer and then click on Open.
