Bug Description
Downloaded Xenial Daily from 2016-03-22 on Windows, created a live USB using "Linux Live USB creator" and tested on an Inspiron 14 3000 series laptop, system boots correctly, Xubuntu loading image (boot image) is displayed, but it seems to fail just before launching the ubiquity installer, because no language selector nor install/try Xubuntu options appear, instead, I get a window with following message:
Sorry, Ubuntu 16.04 has experienced an internal error.
If you notice further problems try restarting the computer.
If clicking on the "Show details" button I get this information:

I was unable to connect to the Internet so I couldn't send the report within the live USB environment, after trying and getting a connection error, a new window appears with this message:
The installer encountered an unrecoverable error. A desktop session will now be run so that you may investigate the problem or try installing again.
Clicking on the "OK" button on that window will bring a black window with some white text and then back to a "normal" live graphical session, with a link to "Install Xubuntu 16.04 LTS" on the desktop.
I'll try to add more information as I can gather it.
Seems a duplictae of https:/ /bugs.launchpad .net/ubuntu/ +source/ ubiquity/ +bug/1560459
