@Claude,

Sorry to hear about the issue!

Here are some quick steps to try:

Check the USB Drive – Ensure it’s properly formatted and try a different USB drive.

Verify the ISO – Confirm the ISO file isn’t corrupted using its checksum.

Recreate Bootable USB – Use tools like Rufus, Etcher, or dd and ensure UEFI options are set correctly.

Update UEFI Settings – Disable Secure Boot and enable USB boot in BIOS.

Try Another Distro – Test with a different Linux distribution to rule out compatibility issues.

If it still doesn’t work, let me know the Linux distro and tools you’re using, and I’ll help further.

Hope this helps!

Hi Ravi,

I followed the steps exactly as described, but after redoing the installation about six times, I keep encountering an error.

When I boot from the USB, I see “Reset System“, and my system keeps rebooting.

My system is an Acer with an i3 CPU, 8GB RAM, and UEFI.

What do you think could be the problem?
