    Type startx if you got command line, then boot live and then install. I hope this solves your problem.

    Type startx on command line. And no previleges are required since startx always run without any previlege. If still it doesn't solve your problem post an image of command line you are getting and please mention which version and which type of Ubuntu you are using.
