![]() ![]() With Ventoy, I get either above or new error: cannot mount /flash/SYSTEMģ. Usually with Rufus, LE USB Creator I get the error : cannot mount UUID=. No luck with your boot method: this time the laptop just hangs at the Dell splash, much as with the old Dell PC case in OP.Īnd yes, because I want to avoid any nasty surprise (e.g., HDD Windows wipeout), I have been editing the syslinux.cfg from DEFAULT installer to DEFAULT run and also been typing run at the prompt, just to avoid installation ! Hopefully this makes no difference. Great thanks for the little magic trick !ġ. To solve that, start "Disk Management" tool or search for "Create and format hard disk partitions" (Win10 / Win11) and assign a drive letter to the FAT32 partition of the drive. RE: " USB drive disappears from my Win File Manager" Re: earlier threads, here is one of them that talks about a solution in message #39 by OP, which I don't understand owing to translation.Īlso I did try the #24 solution and then sdb/sda 1/2 methods subsequently, but no luck. Since last night, after burning the boot image (all 3 tools) the USB drive disappears from my Win File Manager, and I have been reformatting via diskpart and Disk Management to repeat the process without luck ! This is a common issue so far.Īnyway I might be able to try out your empty boot distro with the System and Kernel files copied once the USB drive stick and contents become visible again ! I am also thinking of trying Plop Boot Manager. After creating the stick you have to copy the LINUX and SYSTEM files of the desired LE release. To shorten this thread I've created an empty legacy boot only image with DOS partitioning scheme. Which thread? My web search foo seem not to be good enough to find it. I tried all kinds of online fixes, no luck. The problem: Unluckily the Dell E7450 in UEFI mode doesn't detect the hard drive, so no go ! However, when I switched to UEFI boot on my Dell E7450, LE 10.0 (and the other distro) booted right away, with the 5 sec menu for install, run or live selection appearing.ĥ. Interestingly another USB2.0 stick with Ubuntu Mate 20.04 via Universal USB Installer booted fine on the same laptop under Legacy Boot.Ĥ. No luck.ĭeleting the EFI /BOOT folder or its files for Legacy Boot made no difference.ģ. I tried various USB2.0 sticks with all the 3 USB3.0 laptop slots. All the files that should be there show up properly in Windows File manager, and I was able to get into syslinux.cfg to edit "installer" to "run" etc. This is USB boot, not the HDD install which stage I never got to, trying with LE USB Creator, Rufus and Win32DiskImager. On an older Dell PC, it just hangs at the Dell splash showing F2/F12 Settings/Boot menu.Ģ. ![]() The laptop always boots in Windows 10 on HDD as usual. A19 (Feb'18) had exactly the same behavior. So LE 10.0 latest (and another related distro 10.1.1 and 10.0.9) just doesn't boot on my Dell E74560 laptop with the latest A24 (Jun'20) BIOS, in default Legacy Boot. I have read all the related threads (over the last 3 days of my attempts) but haven't come across this problem that I discovered by trial and error.ġ. ![]()
