Hello, this is my 1st attempt to install Linux on my Windows PC, so I shall tell probably a lot of stupid things, please be patient.
I would like to use Skywave Linux distribution and evaluate it just in USB stick installation.
I used Ventoy for the USB stick and I copied .iso on USB with Windows 11 as described in https://skywavelinux.com/skywavelinux-iso-to-usb.html
Then I followed https://www.technewstoday.com/ventoy-secure-boot/ to overcome "Verification failed: (01XA) Security Violation" problem.
So now the USB is bootable but I got /live/vmlinuz.... not found problem.
What do you suggest me to do?

You can use Balena Etcher to flash the iso file to the USB drive directly. This method is much safer than dd which may wipe out your data if given an incorrect command. When Using Etcher, be sure to select the right drive.
