Blackarch boots only into CLI #20

Sorry for this dumb question but when i start the live iso image it starts only in rootFS command mode. I haven't used the distro for a while so i downloaded the latest 32bit full version. 

startx

is not working so if there is another command tell me.. Or is bug or it's just me running into this issue.

@v00x

Is it similar to: https://github.com/BlackArch/blackarch/issues/1154 ?

v00x commented 6 years ago

i was usinf rufus, and i will try with a different software. It was UEFI.

@v00x please do. I'd recommend using dd if possible. dd bs=512M if=file.iso of=/dev/sdX where X is the device you'll burn the ISO and file.iso is the iso you have downloaded.

If everything run smooth, consider closing this issue after.

Thanks.

I tried with Win32DiskImager and that solved my problem, the OS booted up properly. It's some kind of alternative to dd but for windows. I coud done it on another linux but i didn't had time to do so i used a 3 party program, and thanks i'm closing this issue!
