The HP Pavilion g6 notebook is unable to boot from bootable USB stick created with Linux Live USB Creator. I was able to boot other systems using the same pendrive.



I have changed the boot priority using F10. When I restarted, it didn't ask for any message like




Press any key to boot from




When I press F19, and selected the pendrive from the available options to boot from, while restarting it gives me a message:



error while trying to boot selected boot image


Though I looked into the possible suggestions here, none of them worked. Looking for any help?



EDIT: I was able to fix the first issue, i'e ubuntu could be installed as secure boot option in the bios was not allowing the pendrive or cd/dvd to be detected. Now once i have successfully installed ubuntu 12.04, after the restart i was unable to find it in the os menu for selection and windows8 loaded by default



Ubuntu version: 12.04

Solved:
The lappy comes with windows 8, so in order to boot from external device i had to enter into the bios and disable secure boot(set secure boot to false), which solved the issue.
