Boost.Python error on XFCE Edition

I tried to install Manjaro XFCE Edition in my Virtual machine by downloading the ISO. Once the installation is in progress around 22% i get an error saying “Installation Failed”

Boost.Python error in job “unpackfs”.

Tried to download new copy & tried to install, still i get the same error.

Any suggestions?

Only a few thousand questions that you could have supplied answers to in your first post…here’s the first few off the top of somebody’s head…

  • First, welcome to Manjaro Linux! :smiley: We’ve been wondering where you were…
  • Second, what ISO (DE, vers. number) did you download?
  • Did you verify the download checksum?
  • How did you burn the ISO? UNetbootin is not supported! Did you use ‘dd’? A Windows program? What?
  • What is your hardware? (Hardware changes all the time, and once in a while a boot-parameter is all that is required.) PLEASE tell us everything about your computer hardware that you can!
  • Tell us about your VirtualBox…Linux? Windows? What?
  • Finally, have you ever booted or installed Linux before? If so, details please…

Again, welcome to Manjaro Linux! :slight_smile:

From the link:
https://manjaro.org/get-manjaro/

I use VMware Workstation Pro I mount the Manjaro KDE ISO using installer disc image file in VMware (not using any usb stick).

CPU: AMD FX8350
GPU ATI 7770 HD
8GB RAM DDR3
1TB HDD
Windows 10 Enterprise X64 OS

Thanks for help.

I tried a few time with the same ISO of
