[SOLVED] 128GB NTFS USB drive causes boot to fail

[agent_kith]

Edit... hp t-520 bios settings (F10 as it boots)...... 1st boot device default is USB..... Change that to ATA Flash and Snakeoil will boot first.
Set 2nd boot device to USB (or disabled )
Save and you should be good.

This should work.

The alternative is to create a writable EXT4 partition called "persistent", and the install liveCD should turn from a read only OS to a read/write live system. Problem with this is the GUI still boots up. So might need to tweak the scripts a little to make sure the sound quality don't suffer. <- This is in my TODO list. Hopefully I can get to work on this in time.
