Error when loading Ubuntu live USB
(lemmy.world)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I've tested the Beta of Ubuntu 24.04 and during the installation it bailed out as well which I've never seen before.
Normally the installation disk has Try and Install mode. If you go for the Try mode and then choose install you should be able to navigate to the log files and check the contents which can give you an idea of what went wrong.
There's other flavors of Ubuntu, like Lubuntu, Xubuntu, Kubuntu, Edubuntu. Try one of them and see whether the same error happens. After you would successfully install for example Xubuntu you can use apt to install the
ubuntu-desktop
package which is a meta package which will install the default GNOME of Ubuntu. Then proceed to remove the XFCE4 packages and you're done.
