Trouble booting Ubuntu from USB drive with a working Ubilinux system.

in UP Board Linux
I installed Ubilinux on the UP board just fine using a USB stick, just fine, no problems. Been using it for a couple months or more. Now when I want to install Ubuntu (full installation) so I can run ROS, I cannot get the system to boot from the USB. Ubilinux just boots normally. I've tried several USB drives, no luck. I tried Rufus and win32diskimager to burn the image, still no luck. I'm sure I'm just missing something simple here... anyone got a clue for me. thanks

    Doh!, I just needed to remove Ubilinux from the boot sequence. Yeah, it was that simple.

    In case its useful in the future, please note that you can press F7 when the BIOS is loading (typically just after the Num-Lock LED is turned on) and you should get a menu to pick alternative disk partitions to boot from.

    Good to know.

    I actually installed Ubuntu alongside Ubilinux, all seems good now.

    thanks much
