Hi, I have downloaded v2.1 x64 and I am trying to boot from usb. I have tried three different usb sticks and two different laptops. Everytime I get the screen below and boot stucks with blinking cursor.
SYSLINUX 4.06 EDD 2012-10-23 bla bla bla...
Is there anything that I miss?
Cannot boot v2.1 x64 from usb
Re: Cannot boot v2.1 x64 from usb
I realized that usb sticks are formatted with fat32. I reformatted the stick with fat. But this time I get boot menu and stuck again. I cannot select anything or boot to porteus.

Did you download it direct to the usb?
Porteus is proud of the FASTEST KDE ever made.....(take akonadi, nepomuk and soprano out and you will have a decent OS).
