LL install hangs at Updates and other software
#2
Be sure to follow the manual advice on disabling Secure Boot, using UEFI and backing up anything important on the disk before starting.

Reports of installations hanging at the 'Updates and Other Software' crop up but don't seem to have a definitive cause and cure.
The suspicion is that it is actually a problem with beginning the next section in which the disk set up is checked which makes it hang.

Has your SSD been used previously ?
One possibility is that if the disk has been used for Windows, Windows may have left the disk in an untidy state (e.g. hibernate files etc) which may upset the linux installer.

If you let the machine boot to the 'Live' desktop rather than doing a 'direct Install', you can have a look at the state of the SSD and tidy it up before starting the install using gparted or similar.

The Updates Error log you are getting is because the system hasn't been properly installed (yet) so nothing to worry about (yet).
