Anyone in here able to help me out?
Currently using Win7 and I'm trying to dual-boot with Mint.
Only issue is that I don't have a usable disk or flash drive on hand, so I used this guide: http://askubuntu.com/questions/484434/install-ubuntu-without-cd-and-usb-how to install it without either of those things.
The issue I'm having is that after I load the bootloader and select to install Mint/MATE OEM, it gives me an error that reads "ISO Location not found"
How am I to fix this?

If you are using unetbootin that might be the problem, it overwrites syslinux.cfg and generally fucks up the ISO

P. Much.

>>
>>53500523

I've been using it and it barely works with anything else except Tiny Core and antiX

I remember being a winkiddie using cracked proprietary or "free" nagware shit that didn't actually work properly and probably gave me trojans.
Sure for professional shit you have massive software suites, but most people who say they "need photoshop" just want to makes memes for reddit

I am that type of person that tries every single available software for a specific task then puts the verdict based on results.

Advantage on windows is that there is a higher user base that already reviewed most shit so I can put together a list of worthy to test apps, then there are so many apps on windows... and last but not least I pirate all of them.. so even if they cost you thousands of dollars in license, no fuck it - just run a 100kb crack - it's done, full features.

When you want a software to do something specific, it's almost always open-source.
Because open-source comunity motivation to make software is fix a gap, or just "I wanted to do that so there's a software I made".
Proprietary softwares are make for $$$ reason, and do not care about specific task that only 3 neckbeards wants.
