I have attempted to redownload the .iso and have attempted the install multiple times.
Thank you in advance

Have you tried using a different tool to create the USB?

Not OP but I have the same issue and I've tried balenaEtcher and dd from a linux terminal. Both the same results. I haven't tried with another edition though.

EDIT: also tried with the unstable edition and same outcome. Installed kubuntu after without an issue, but I would like to install KDE neon in the future I hope it gets fixed

Also getting this.

Trying to install from <neon-developer-20220613-1850.iso>

Same problem also for me.

iirc, ISO images are rebuilt weekly, so perhaps the next build may work?

While it is a problem that the Unstable/Developer ISOs are having issues, are these versions even useful, considering that they have the most volatile, raw testing code directly from git that isn't even at a beta or alpha level? This likely includes the installer.

Unstable Edition

Featuring pre-release KDE software built the same day from new feature branches. Good for testing. There is no QA. Will contain many bugs.

Developer Edition

Unstable Editon plus development libraries pre-installed.

I assume that User and testing install fine?

User Edition install is fine.

Developer edition is using the currently unreleased version 3.3.0 of the installer calamares so maybe a bug in that, although I couldn't see it on their issue tracker.

As advised on the calamares issue tracker I have reported it on the KDE tracker first Bug #455714

Today's Developer Edition ISO installs OK (neon-developer-20220627-1851.iso which uses calamares 3.3.0-alpha1)
