I had installed livecd-tools before posting my query here but could not get
it to work?
Media-writer appears to be the new name of the livecd-creator application. I
installed and used that to create a Fedora27-live on the external usb hard
drive. It was no better than the thumb drive, it seems this ASRock
QC5000-itx-wifi board wont boot from a usb port and I have not been able to
start it with the cmos-boot menu. I suspect it needs to be reset for
usbboot?
I don't think I ever tried this with this board before, I believe it was a
replacement I used for a failed motherboard and it just worked with the
existing hard drives and Fedora21. Now I have a problem. I guess the
solution will be another board, not the same brand!
Thanks to all responding,
Bob
I suggest you have a look at the manual for that MOBO[1]; it looks
like it supports booting from usb (from reading the "Boot Screen"
section of the manual PDF.
