Re: [Trisquel-users] Can't boot Trisquel 8 from USB

I had to write the iso slowly; chunks of 1M or more didn't work:
dd staus=progress if=IMAGENAME.iso of=/dev/DEVICE bs=512k; sync
worked for me.

Hello :) new Trisquel 8 iso won't boot, if you use USB 3.0 port. 2.0, though,  
works fine.

I quote quidam from last Friday meeting:

 I was able to replicate issues with booting the live cd on real computers  
(works fine on vms). I think it is one parameter in the live cd boot, that  
should be deprecated (the one that makes it wait for usb)



So hopefully if it is not fixed in that last built it will be soon.

Yes, it seems that some people have this issue while for others there is no 
problem, so I wonder if it is a hardware thing.

I used Unetbootin to make a bootable USB drive. I had no problem booting and  
getting to the desktop. The latest ISO 03-20 works fine with me.

Re: [Trisquel-users] Can't boot Trisquel 8 from USB

Just tried the new 3/20 ISO. The problem still hasn't been fixed. Back to 6/19.

I tried installing insight3D and while trying to remove some broken packages  
in the synaptic package handler (not sure on the exact name) I ended up  
stripping T8 bare.  It did not boot up once I rebooted.


Does anyone know where I can find an image of trisquel 8 that boots once I  
burn it on a USB.


I have searched the web with no luck.

I read in this thread that the one from January works but can't find it  
anywhere.


Or can anyone make the one available where I can download it.

Thank you for any and all help.

Trisquel 8 ISO, uploaded 2018-02-20 boots fine from a DVD. I burned the ISO  
with growisofs.


growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/sr0=trisquel_8.0_amd64.iso

The latest greatest February 16 ISO won't boot from USB. DVD boots but  
there's a big wait until it lands on TTY Login.


This is what I get on my HP Probook.

I could not get the 2-17-18 .iso to boot from USB or from DVD ... I am now  
using an .iso from January from jenkins and it works fine.  I should be able  
to apt upgrade up to the new changes right?

Re: [Trisquel-users] Can't boot Trisquel 8 from USB

I had the same problem with my libreboot machine so I had to burn a DVD.  
Startup Disk Creator only works with BIOS/UEFI.


After installing Trisquel I installed GNU Ring.

> sounds like the standard 'dd' approach doesn't work?

With the December ISO neither dd nor Startup Disk Creator worked for me. With 
the previous ISO from last summer, SDC did not work but dd did. When I have a 
chance to back up by files I'll try installing with the new ISO.

Re: [Trisquel-users] Can't boot Trisquel 8 from USB

What's new in the February ISO?  Downloading it as we speak.  I may have to  
burn to USB drive with the archive mounter or something; sounds like the  
standard 'dd' approach doesn't work?

I used an ASUS X453M, an ASUS X101CH, a generic desktop (not sure about
the specs), and an HP Pavillion dm1. Both ASUS laptops can use most of
the distros in the FSF list (incl. Trisquel 7) with wifi and camera
working. I used a TPlink usb on the Pavillion to make wifi work on
Trisquel 7.

Drat. I was hoping the problem would be fixed with the new ISO. I'll try it 
this weekend and see if it persists for me as well.

What machine are you using? I had this problem with the December ISO on a 
librebooted 64-bit ThinkPad X60. I had no trouble with the ISO preceding that 
one.

Re: [Trisquel-users] Can't boot Trisquel 8 from USB

I used the latest one this February 2018.

What is the date of the ISO? I had that problem with the one from last 
December. I saw that a new one was uploaded yesterday but I haven't tried it yet
