    Step 1: Restart the server. You can't get through this error and start all over again without restarting.

    Step 2: Boot from USB. You'll need to load all the way to the installer, but don't start the installation yet.

    Step 3: Open the shell: press ALT F2 before proceeding with anything else. This will open the shell where we run our command to remount.

    Step 4: Reassemble the USB drive. The main command you're going to execute will be something like this.

                 Mount /dev/sdb1 /install

    Step 5: Exit the shell safely. Press ALT+F1 to exit the shell

    Step 6: Install. Run the installer.
