[SOLVED] Bios setup with dell inspiron n7110

Hi.

I don.t want to go hacking around in bios. I have usb set on top of boot order.
But ubuntu on flash drive will not boot. What should I do.

How did you create the USB?

I got it from the ubuntu site and loaded it with lili

I checked the flash drive, it has 2.5 gigs on it so I guess we can assume the flash drive is OK.
There are other settings in bios about using a usb but I don't want to change them unless I get advise.

Here is how to create it from an ubuntu installation:

And here is how to do it from a windows installation:

The USB needs to be created correctly for it to boot. It sounds like you have the pc boot order correct; I think the USB is the issue

ok did what you suggested. Didn't work. I burned a dvd that worked. Thanks for the help.
