I dont know what is going on with this but, my latop does not want to run the Live USB. My laptop does boot off USB, I run uBuntu on my USB hard drive, and I was able to get Fedora 11 beta to work fine. (The only reson I tryed Fedora 11 was that 10 did not work with my desktop.) When I try to run the live usb it look like its going to work, but it will set at the loading bar for about 5 min then I get his ( i am typing this from a pic so if i use ? that means i cant make you what the letter is.)

I have had similar problems working from a CD, I don't think it's specific to USB.

One of my three machines shows the same BusyBox message and dies booting from CD. The other two are happy.

The think i dont get is that it only does it with the usb, I does not do it with the CD. IDK what uBuntu your having prob. with but i have 9.04. I am goint to try it with 8.04. I dont know if that will do it or not.

When I tryed fedora 10, it worked on my laptop, but when i ran it on my desktop the screen will go white. When I tryed 11 the beta, I work. So i am hoping that it will work out the same.:confused:
