Asus x201e won't boot to any USB

rated 0 times [ 0] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 3983 / 2 Years ago, wed, november 23, 2022, 2:58:28

I am trying to install Xubuntu / Ubuntu on my Asus X201E laptop, but I don't even get to the install menu, because the live usb (which I've tried making in LiLi, UNetbootin) doesn't do anything. I don't have any other OS installed and the USB is listed asi Boot Option #1.

AFAIK, the laptop only support EFI.

perhaps it's worth trying another boot tool -- Rufus, pay attention to when creating USB stick,
the target system should be EFI or UEFI
and some reference info:
Even page is for win10, Ubuntu is almost same.

and also pay attention to the BIOS setting as @user280493 pointed out, the first boot option should be "USB disk EFI usbDiskName", because some BIOS distinguish "USB disk EFI usbDiskName" and "USB disk usbDiskName"
