Kubuntu 14.04 has not installed?

[Guest]

The program has downloaded and restarted the computer but Kubuntu does not come up after the reboot.I get something called "BusyBox built-in shell ASH and an input line initramfs which is looking for a response. I've tried inputting everything i could think of to no avail. Any suggestions about what I have to do to get operational?

• If Kubuntu is installed, is it installed 'inside' of Windows (Wubi installation).
• What version of KDE you are using.

That said..
My initial thought is, there could be a package that's not compatible with your Desktop or laptop..

The Forum community will need the information I just provided above to pin point the issue..
