Installation command

Post by AndreasDK »

Hi.

I have been using Ubuntu for quite a while and decided to give Mint Debian a spin last night.

I downloaded the DVD 32bit file and put it onto a USB pen using Ubuntus Startup disk creator, which has allways worked fine for all the distros I have put on pens.

However... When I try to boot my computer from it it hangs saying something about it not being a R32 image and keeps standing with a terminal initiating with boot colon *Please note I am on a different keyboard layout, so I have got some problems making special signs*

I have tried entering |Install| and other things to it, but regardless of what I type in it just replies that there is no such kernel.

Cab someone please telle me what I need to do to get a working live disk running of a USB pen_

I recommend to use Universal USB creator from Pendrivelinux.com as this is the most reliable way to get a bootable USB. It is the only program that was able to make a USB bootable on all my Linux computers (with other programs, an older computer (assembled of parts from 2002-2006) failed to boot).
