i am currently trying to install xubuntu on an old computer of mine, the problem is that the computer's cd drives are no longer functional but the usb drives are. so i figured i could make a bootable usb and install it that way. I already made the bootable usb and tried to boot the computer using the usb, but it would just load like normal. I continued to search around and found that i could use PLop Boot Manager to force my computer to boot from usb, the problem is that i have installed PLop and yet it will not recognize the usb device. I was hoping someone could help me out by figuring out why PLop will not recognize the usb or come up with another way besides PLop for my to install xubuntu.
