USB Boot Failure
Hey guys, I’ve been at this for two days now, and can’t make any progress. Your suggestions are greatly appreciated.
First, the details:
Target OS:
Fedora 14, i386
Target Machine:
IBM (e)server, xSeries 306
OS: Fedora v.4
Boot Order:
1. CD...
2. Removable Media
3. SATA...
USB Drive:
adata 8GB
Process:
I used the prescribed live usb creator for windows to fill the usb drive with Fedora 14 i386. I’ve attempted to boot from the USB at least 4 times, once from each USB port on the box. No luck.
There isn’t an option in the BIOS to select the specific boot device. I bring that up because my desktop does have that option, and using the BIOS’ “BOOT MENU”, I was able to boot from the USB and bring up the Fedora 14 Installation Menu, no problem.
So, it works on the pc that’s on my desk (eMachine w/XP), but the IBM doesn’t even recognize it. Any ideas?
