I'm having issues getting Kodachi3 to boot from a USB even though its possible. I've downloaded the ISO file, and tried many different ISO to USB programs including:
UNetbootin
Linux Live USB Creator
Rofus
How ever when the ISO is placed on to the USB my Laptop wont boot from the USB. I've tried many different USB drives and also tried the USB drives in different PCs/Laptops. I cant seem to get Linux Kodachi3 to boot from USB.
What am i missing or doing wrong here? I've spent the last 4hrs trying to get this to work but none of my PCs/Laptops will boot up from the USB and instead loads Windows up even if i tell the PC/Laptop to boot from USB.
Every time i gone ahead and put the ISO onto the USB using UNetbootin i have always formatted the USB and put it as fat32. I've even gone out and bought a brand new USB stick just incase all 3 i tried was faulty. But the same thing happens on the new one too.
I've managed to sort this out thanks to @jefro 's comment. Had to change the BIOS Boot to Legacy in order for it to work. Has anyone used Kodachi before?

A kodachi, literally translating into "small or short tachi".
No.
