#60 DragonsOS LiveUSB unable to boot
I am trying to install dragonos to a liveusb. When I boot from the flash drive it gets hung up on "Starting Terminate Plymouth Boot Screen." I tried using both Balena etcher and Rufus. I downloaded an older version of dragonos, used a different flashdrive and USB port. Same thing every time
I downloaded Ubuntu and was able to boot into it fine with the same PC/flashdrive. I am very new to Linux so i may be missing something obvious. Any tips on what I should try next?
When you’re booting and it’s stuck, can you try Ctrl + Alt + F4 to see if it’ll drop to a terminal. I’m thinking of maybe two things that could cause it to hang up assuming the DragonOS download is not corrupt.
In the off chance the pc has a Broadcom WiFi card in it I’ve seen an issu me with a driver I’ve put in the live boot or possibly you may need to set nomodeset in grub, but can you share details/model of the PC?

Yeah, I can go to terminal during booting.
I actually just tried booting off an old laptop, and I can boot into dragonOS no problem using the same flash drive. It runs awesome on this old laptop. So something is up with my PC.
The PC is running windows 11, Nvidia 4080S, Ryzen 5800x3d, Asus X570 motherboard. It does not have a Broadcam card. The motherboard has a integrated intel WIFI card that I don't utilize. I do have a soundblaster soundcard as well.
Not a huge deal, as it is working great on the laptop. I can try to set nomodeset and see if that works.
I bet that may be it with setting maybe nomodeset in grub temporarily until you can boot and install, you may even need to do it on reboot until you can get in and install the nvidia drivers. I have a 30xx something in my laptop, can’t remember the exact model.
Good to hear it’s going on the old pc, but I suspect with nomodeset you may be able to get it booted on the tower. Nomodeset is by no means ideal for continued use but at least till you can get drivers (hopefully that’s it) it’s fine.

Awesome! nomodeset worked. That allowed me to boot up. I installed the Nvidia drivers, restarted, and I am in. I really appreciate the help!
