Bug Description

The ubuntu-18.04.2-desktop-amd64.iso maybe corrupted.

This is the md5sum -c MD5SUMS | grep ubuntu-18.04.2-desktop-amd64.iso output:

md5sum: ubuntu-18.04.2-live-server-amd64.iso: No such file or directory
md5sum: WARNING: 1 listed file could not be read

I downloaded the ISO image more time from official mirror.

When I try to install Ubuntu, I get two errors:
 a busybox (core dump) e the crash of the intaller with errno5

It's possible you had a bad write to your media or for some other reason its contents could not be read. Whenever you have such a problem please try the option to check the integrity of the image from the installer boot menu, and if this confirms that the media is corrupt, try re-writing and/or re-downloading it.
