[Starlingx-discuss] R2.0 iso installation failure: USB device naming

[Ezpeer Chen]

Dear Pratik,

I don't know the root cause. But i think this could workaround.

You should have two hard disk.

Go to the shell (ctrl+b+2)  and use fdisk command to clear all your
partitions on your hard disks and create new clear partition.

Then use bootable usb to install STX again.

You can try it.


Thanks
