My brother asked me toTinstall Kubuntu on his laptop and wipe Windows. The splash screen shows it is a Republic Of Gamer's MOBO. I found an option for fast boot and disabled it. I think it's EFI. Every time I try to install it says it can not unmount /from. There is no cdrom drive on this computer. Info center says it is ASUSTek COMPUTER INC. Product Strix 17 GL703GE.

Getting that error suggests you are trying to install to the wrong device, back on to the USB.Regards, John Little
