Probably you are trying to install it via USB? If you using rufus you need to use DD mode.
 
Try using Balena Etcher, it works for me...

Now I had anothers issue when installing I get theese messages "ACPI: SPCR Unexpected SPCR Access Width, ; X86 cpu (outside TXT); ACPI BIOS Error (bug): ACPI Error: Aborting method.
