Root Problem installing ROM

Hey guys,
Yesterday I decided to install the CyanogenMod 12.1 rom on my LG L70, it's unlocked, I rooted it successfully and wiped, but when I go to recovery mode and try to apply update from external sd, my phone says "e:failed to mount /sdcard (invalid argument)". I tried everything I could. I thought the problem was my SD card but I tried 3 different SD's and nothing changed.

My phone's specifications:
Model: LG-D325g8
Kernel: 3.4.0+
Software: V10d-SCA-XXX

Do you have any solutions?
Thanks!

Hi, please follow the instructions given in the CM12.1 OP: http://androidforums.com/threads/un...12-1-for-lg-l70-d320-d320n-d325-ms323.912225/

As Imntrix suggested, you need to change your stock recovery to TWRP. Links are given in the thread I've linked.
 
Guys, thanks for answering
I changed recovery to TWRP, but when I try to enter recovery mode (that should be TWRP), a purple screen that says DBI Err Fatal appears, as if TWRP is damaged or something.
What am I doing wrong?
 
Yes, I did that successfully.
I don't really know what to do now... should I try harder to install CyanogenMod 12.1/13.0 or leave things as they are, with stock rom and Android 4.4.2? Are those new roms that good? What's better in them?
 
Everything's better with CM12.1 or 13 than stock ROM :) I'm serious.
In my opinion, CM12.1 is stable now and works without problems. It's faster, more convenient, better looking, more configurable, more secure, almost perfect :) Did I mentioned it's damn fast? :D

You might have flashed a wrong aboot file while unlocking bootloader - check this thread and try to replace your aboot with the correct one.
