[Starlingx-discuss] StarlingX Bootimage.iso Queries

[Ezpeer Chen]

Dear all,

StarlingX could be installed from bootable USB no matter which version it
is.

I could use rufus software to create bootable STX USB with ISO mode.


Dear Gupta,

Your usb issue:

Your grub should have this parameters "LABEL=OE_ISO_BOOT"
Make sure  "OE_ISO_BOOT"  It will appear twice as the same. Both uppercase
or lowercase.

You can try it.






Thanks
