Just getting started, having some problems...

[mechspectre]

I have read through the forums and followed the instructions listed in both the HowTo and several forum posts and am unable to continue.

It would appear as though something may be incompatible with my hardware.

When writing the BT-GNU-x64-R3 to an 8gb USB 3.0 Memory stick, and then booting from said drive, I am met with invalid or corrupt kernel. The md5 passed and I am writing with unetbootin.

Any advice?

For clarity,
MSI - MS-1756
Intel i7 - 2.8ghz
nVidia 650m

I'm not sure, but some people posted in some threads about having problems installing BT in a USB 3.0...They had to get a USB 2.0...Search the forums to read those posts..

Luck..

this works well untill you try to update BT and you find that you a bigger casper-rw file
Theres a guide on how to do that but if you just want it on a usb to install BT onto your pc this will be fine
