Hello,
I have a new SER5. I can't get it to boot from USB.
I've tried a USB stick and a USB DVD that will boot on other computers.
I've tried UEFI and Legacy boot.
I turned Secure Boot off.
I even removed the internal SSD from the boot order, and it still keeps booting into the pre-installed Windows.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Paul

SUCCESS! UEFI and secure boot don't like the old DOS/FDISK partition table. I was trying to boot from a KNOPPIX LiveCD. Booting from the newest Xubuntu has a GPT partition table.
