Error in boot using USB drive for Fedora?

Or can you see something like this:

[16.467025] USB 1-2: device not accepting address 2, error – 110

[32.103021] USB 1-2: device not accepting address 2, error – 110

[42.627052] USSB 1-2: device not accepting address 4, error – 110

[47.2221531] [drm] nonveau 0000:02:00.0: Register 0X00004030 not found in PLL limits table

Solution:

1. Go to ‘BIOS Setup’ by pressing DEL, F4 or F2 (Depending on the motherboard of your computer)
2. ‘Advance Bios Features’
3. Check if there is ‘Installer OS Select – Auto’
4. Change ‘Auto’ to ‘Others’
5. Save Changes by pressing F10.
6. Then reboot your system and use your computer's built-in function to choose the USB boot device -- usually this is a special key you hold down at boot time, such as F12 or F9. Then enjoy!

This little knowledge we uncover thru contributed efforts was made possible with the help extended to us by the manager of Auza.Net.

How to create a bootable USB/flash drive for Fedora?

The process for most people is simple. Almost all USB sticks are provided by hardware manufacturers ready to use with this process. If you have any documents on your USB stick, it's not a bad idea to back them up before you start.

• Download the LiveUSB Creator program from http://fedorahosted.org/liveusb-creator
• Download the Live ISO image from http://fedoraproject.org/get-fedora.
• Insert your stick and run the LiveUSB Creator program.
• Select the removable drive where you want the LIVE ISO for Fedora be installed.
• Browse the Live ISO image you have downloaded.
• Hit the button Create Live USB.

Then reboot your system and use your computer's built-in function to choose the USB boot device -- usually this is a special key you hold down at boot time, such as F12 or F9. Then enjoy!

If you have problems in booting thru the use of your USB, go to BIOS setup. Change the boot sequence. Set the boot device priority as your USB. Then also check “Advance BIOS Features”. Change “Select Operating System” from “Auto” to “Other”.
