Unable to boot from flash drive , shows black sceen
Hi ,
i want to to install backtrack 5 on my laptop which is "hp pavilion g4-2082la" but when ever i tried to boot my laptop with bootable flash drive it shows black screen.
I make my drive bootable using UNetbootin.
please suggest me what is the problem, Backtrack is tested on VM i.e copy is not corrupted.
i been doing some searching over the internet and found out another solution that is , install Ubantu and then Install Backtrack over it , any risks involved in that?
Details :
Version - BT5
manager - GNOME
Arch -64
tested on another machine ASUS X52F-XF1 Working Fine
Re: Unable to boot from flash drive , shows black sceen
Please provide us more details, what version of Backtrack, what architecture, did you follow the Wiki?
Also did your USB drive work on another machine ? Did you install the graphic drivers ?
