Not bootable on Ventoy #238

Closed mcut17198 closed 1 year ago

mcut17198 commented 1 year ago

I generated an ISO and copied it into my USB stick with Ventoy installed. When trying booting this ISO, it stuck with Looking for lovely-livecd data in /lovely-livecd ... About one minute later, it shows that 

Fatal error occured - Could not locate data
Something went wrong and we can't continue. This should never happen.
Please reboot your computer with Ctrl+Alt+Delete ...

Any solutions?

I use easy2boot without issues. This may be related to the drivers included. You might need to add additional drivers for the USB.

Here are some troubleshooting steps I did: https://github.com/Tomas-M/linux-live/issues/133#issuecomment-1056049583

Guys, I think this iso-image is not hybrid, it can be booted only from CD/DVD, no USB stick, no Ventoy. If you want a bootable USB-stick follow the actual procedure the author gave you in README - it works.

@newbie-c There are a few lines in the readme “If you want to use the Live Kit on a USB you have to either

  • use Windows to execute the bootinst.bat file in the $NAME/boot folder
  • or use Linux to execute the shellscript bootinst.sh in the $NAME/boot folder”

But I can't find bootinst.sh
