I cannot get a Live USB stick to boot on my machine /at all/. Despite having Secure Boot turned off in the BIOS it seems that enabling UEFI also enables Secure Boot. So I turned that off and managed to get to the first screen of a few different distros, but after selecting language or choosing kernel version (whatever the first optio is for that particular distro) my laptop reboots and I end up going round in circles. ▪ ┌────┐ ┌────┐ │ │ │ │ ▪ │ └────┘ │ │ ──┐ ┌── │ ▪ ┌──────┤ ▪ ▪ │ ┌┘ │ │ ▪ ┌─┤ └──┐ │ │ ┌──┘ │ │ │ ││ ││ │ ┌─┐ │ │ └─┼┤ └┴─┴───┘ │ │ │ ─┘│ │ │ │ ┌──────┐ └┬──────────┘ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ └───┘ └───┘ If Feds call you and say something bad on me, it may prove what I said are truth, they are afraid of it.

Thanks for all the help everyone. Managed to get it to work after re-imaging the USB stick for the umpteenth time with the exact same image. Hope that doesn't mean my (relatively new) Data Traveler stick is dying :( Typing this from Xubuntu while compiling a computer vision module to make my webcam work for aligning stuff on my laser cutter :C ▪ ┌────┐ ┌────┐ │ │ │ │ ▪ │ └────┘ │ │ ──┐ ┌── │ ▪ ┌──────┤ ▪ ▪ │ ┌┘ │ │ ▪ ┌─┤ └──┐ │ │ ┌──┘ │ │ │ ││ ││ │ ┌─┐ │ │ └─┼┤ └┴─┴───┘ │ │ │ ─┘│ │ │ │ ┌──────┐ └┬──────────┘ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ └───┘ └───┘ If Feds call you and say something bad on me, it may prove what I said are truth, they are afraid of it.

System Rescue CD does usb and might work out of the box. I can boot the newer/est imacs here with it on a usb stick no probs. Dunno about secure boot. ---- "I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn’t lose any voters"
