DSL won't boot from USB on T440 - fraggle - 02-04-2024 As the title says. I used Code: doas dd bs=4M if=dsl-2024.alpha.iso of=/dev/sdc status=progress oflag=sync Regardless of BIOS options on my T440 it just will not boot and loops back to the boot device list. I've tried CSM on and off, UEFI only, Legacy only, Both with UEFI preference. Am I missing something with the dd command or do I need to unpack the ISO and change some things? Maybe I'm missing some obscure BIOS setting that I'm unaware of yet. Any help would be appreciated.

Worked like a charm, sorry for the duped post. Search didn't find the one you linked for me. RE: DSL won't boot from USB on T440 - John - 02-04-2024 I am glad it worked out for you. If you were 36 hours earlier you would have been the one to find this bug. I appreciate all the feedback. |
