GPARTED LIVE USB STUCK ON WARRANTY SCREEN INSTALL

I already have ubuntu-12.10-desktop-i386 installed on one of the hard drives, but haven't been able to do a clean install or test of ubuntu-13.10-desktop-amd64 due to running into the busy box - initramfs wall. Same problem here with ubuntu-13.10-desktop-amd64 (21ec41563ff34da27d4a0b56f2680c4f), but with booting on a live DVD. OpenGL Renderer : GeForce 9500 GT/PCIe/SSE2/3DNOW!ДЄudio Adapter : ICE1724 - Chaintech AV-710 Processor : 4x AMD Athlon(tm) II X4 640 Processor I already have ubuntu- 12.10-desktop- i386 installed on one of the hard drives, but haven't been able to do a clean install or test of ubuntu- 13.10-desktop- amd64 due to running into the busy box - initramfs wall. Same problem here with ubuntu- 13.10-desktop- amd64 (21ec41563ff34d a27d4a0b56f2680 c4f), but with booting on a live DVD. So possible solution is zeroeing disk with dd? someone my be able to suggest more from what I found. I zeroed the disk with dd, after which I could install 13.10 successfully from live usb. These looked like they were being picked up somehow from when I was playing around with archlinux and btrfs (whole disk filesystem, compression no partitions), despite my attempts and deleting all existing partitions with gparted and creating a new partition table.

When I selected these partitions they failed to mount. I noticed on my 13.10 install (upgraded from 13.04) that nautilus listed a few extra partitions under 'Devices' that I didn't recognise. I tried formatting the mSATA disk with gparted live usb (new partition table and new partitions) - still no luck.

I disconnected all disks (HDD SSD) apart from the mSATA. I flashed my BIOS back to the stock versions supplied by CLEVO, but still had the same problem with the 13.10 live usb.

I could successfully upgrade 13.04 to 13.10. I installed 12.04 ењ†4 and thenafter 13.04 ењ†4 which worked fine. The same live USBs worked fine on my desktop computer. I tried different USB ports, usb sticks and usb creator software packages (YUMI, unetbootin, Universal USB Installer, and dd), all of which gave failed boot with 13.10 ењ†4 (initramfs). I know the problem wasn't with the boot media itself. This is my setup and changes that I tried.
