Hi there.
I have a GA-890FXA-UD5 (rev 2.1) with the F6 BIOS. I am unable to boot a Linux image from an USB key, and wondered whether anyone could shed some light on it?
I have tried a couple of different ISO images (Ubuntu 10.10, SysRescueCD 2.1.0) and a couple of different USB keys. My laptop is able to boot from them, but I cannot get my GA-890FXA-UD5 to boot from them. I always get the following:
- Do I need to use a specific USB port, or will any do?
- Should I be using the USB-HDD option from the boot menu (F12)?
- Should I have specific settings enabled in the BIOS?
Many thanks,
Jon
