Having Trouble Installing Pop! OS from USB

Asked By CuriousPenguin42 On

I'm trying to install Pop! OS on my computer using a USB stick, but I'm stuck on a blank screen after I select either 'Try' or 'Install' Pop! OS. I followed all the steps on the official website, and I've even disabled Secure Boot, but nothing seems to work. Any advice on how to resolve this?

It sounds like you might need to check your USB drive. Sometimes there are issues with the way the image is written to the USB stick. Try using tools like Rufus or Etcher to create the bootable USB again. Also, remember to remove the boot media after installation! By the way, Pop! OS is transitioning to a new interface, so if you’re new to Linux, you might want to consider trying another distro in the meantime. Why did you choose Pop! OS specifically?

I totally get your frustration! I've faced similar issues with USB drives too. It's possible there's a fault in your USB stick or the image didn't write correctly. If you can, try another USB stick or re-download the Pop! OS image just to be safe. Good luck!

I don’t have a specific preference for a distro; I'm just trying to move away from Microsoft completely since I can't boot into Windows after their latest update.
