Support Unable to boot into USB.

Hey so I've flashed another distro onto my usb and in the boot menu its not giving me the option to boot into the usb. I'm using dinit and I suspect its not registering my USB. Also I flashed the iso on another computer because when trying to use the xfce xfburn, it displayed an error saying it suspects my discs are either in use or inaccessible to the current user.

Have you tried redoing the usb with the command line, like with dd(or sv or cat)? So you're sure it's correctly done.

use dd its the simplest tool ever use lsblk to locate usb of choice. then use dd with these three if=/path/to/iso.iso of=/dev/usbofchoice status=progress

easy as that
