[Bug 1404477] Re: installing from usb

[Jon Brown]

The response does not help, as I am not installing from a CD/DVD. it is
from a USB. I have tried both the ISO installation throughunetbootin-
windows, and creating a live version on the usb and then installing it.
This resulted in a message that the system was properly installed, but
when I reboot, I get nothing but errors and the system doesn´t boot up.

  I am trying to install from a usb drive because there is no cd / dvd drive. I have tried installing both the desktop and the server editions and all efforts result in a failed installation. 
  I have also booted to the live edition (on the USB), and tried installing from that. The results again result in a failure. 
  I have tried reformatting and repartitioning the hard disk, and repeated the installation process with the same results.
  If I try the custom install, I can´t get past the "No Boot ... identified."
