Nope, and it's getting really annoying, but I think I might know what, look at my next post

I don't have the syslinux (s) there, do I need to change it to those? The USB drive and everything does boot, but it feels like it freezes later, but it doesn't but then something comes that says the Root file system is missing (look at my previous posts)

That looks right to me
Looks like mine

It boots on the other PC yes?

Actually, no it does the same thing, it just boots without me having to move the USB entry in the BIOS menu up.

You mean it's booting first, before your real OS?

That's what you want ain't it?

When I boot, after a minute or 2, the following message comes up:
WARNING: ROOT FILE SYSTEM IS MISSING

#Bash

Then I can type after the bash field.

And this is on any pc you've tried or just that one?

what are the specs of the pc it won't boot on?
no root fs found

it's dropping you to a shell cause it's tripping

meaniing, is your fed usb on the same usb liveusb-creator out it on?

I don't really understand what you just said, but if this is any help: all I can say is I've only been using the USB that I used Fedora Live USB creator to create Fedora on.
