[GTALUG] Anyone tried UbuntuBSD?

I just downloaded UbuntuBSD from
https://sourceforge.net/projects/ubuntubsd/ .  I really like the idea:
ZFS and no systemd.  But attempting to install it in VirtualBox, I got
"error: failed in building a Huffman code table" (a line that stumped
Google!) and got dropped to the 'grub>' prompt (where I admit to being
a bit lost).  This happened on two different machines, one Debian, the
other Ubuntu, and I'm fairly sure they're amd64 systems (needed since
the ISO is x64).  An md5 file to verify the download would be a plus,
but I haven't found one.
