'Ubuntu 18.04 LTS _Bionic Beaver_ - Release amd64 (20180426)' in the drive
   '/media/cdrom/' and press [Enter]

When I press Enter, nothing happens. I tried updating and upgrading my packages so that’s not the issue.

I’m new at Ubuntu so I don’t know what else to do.

  • @DavidFoerster why you like to scroll this message? It is unreadable and ugly that way ("`>`"). – N0rbert Jul 15 '18 at 11:57

    @DavidFoerster You are absolutely right about formatting, but on my Firefox ESR it is scrollable (see [image](https://i.stack.imgur.com/BkZpy.png)). – N0rbert Jul 15 '18 at 12:05

    @N0rbert Not just ESR, Quantum adds scrollbars as well. – PerlDuck Jul 15 '18 at 12:08

    @N0rbert: My mistake. I forgot the user style sheet that forces the style `white-space: pre-wrap` onto all `
    ` nodes (precisely because I don't like to scroll horizontally).

    @PerlDuck SeaMonkey and Chromium too. Of course I mistaken - instead of `>` I mean four spaces. Opened [thread on Meta](https://meta.askubuntu.com/q/18054/66509). – N0rbert Jul 15 '18 at 12:27

You should:

  1. open Software & Updates (or software-properties-gtk from terminal)

  2. then in the area named Installable from CD-ROM/DVD uncheck the Cdrom with Ubuntu 18.04 (Bionic Beaver).

    Software & Updates - disable CDROM

  3. make sure that you do not have checked Cdrom with Ubuntu 18.04 'Bionic Beaver' on Other Software tab:

    Software & Updates - other software

  4. to keep your system secure on Updates tab enable security updates (bionic-security, bionic-updates, bionic-backports):

    Software & Updates - updates
