   I drifted away from Mint many years ago, but the last few versions that   
   I used all had a problem when the Ubiquity slideshow appeared during   
   installation. Removing that slideshow with the package manager while   
   running live from the CD, before installing, fixed the issue.   
      
   Looks like they're still talking about that as recently as a few months   
   ago.    
      
   Whatever trouble you're running into, I suggest spending some time at   
   the Mint forums. They were excellent whenever I needed help.
