I put the stick into my workstation PC on a USB 2.0 port -> Started via GRUB -> It boots successfully without any issues.

I put the stick into my workstation PC on a USB 3.0 port -> Not in BIOS boot menu, started via grub and configfile command -> It booted whereas it did not boot on the USB 3.0 port on my laptop -> and then the same emergency shell as in 1.

However I sometimes boot from my external hard drive connected via usb 3 using the bios boot menu.

I put the stick into my laptop -> USB 3.0 port -> The grub command line is not detecting the drive.

I even do not find any usb drive in /dev/* and dmesg states nothing as well!) Instead I get my internal SSD on /dev/sda.

I changed that on Ubuntu and within Arch itself in /etc/fstab! When I do blkid on the emergency shell, the USB drive is simply not there. (However, the UUID is absolutely correct. > Graphical Arch Linux Splash Screen -> Emergency Shell stating something like Can't run fsck.

I put the stick into my laptop -> USB 2.0 port (I have got a USB 3.0 stick) -> Booting.

Hence, I entered the Grub command line of my Ubuntu installation and entered set root=(hd1,msdos2) # hd1 is my usb stick, msdos1 is swap, msdos2 is bootableĬonfigfile /boot/grub/grub.cfg # in order to load the usb's grub I turned off secure boot and enabled Legace Boot Support. Once completed, I rebooted to the PC's boot menu but the pendrive was not showing up. I used Ubuntu to convert my os.vmdk to /dev/sdc using the command qemu-img convert os.vmdk -O raw /dev/sdc In fact, I tried already creating my bootable media. How could I create a bootable media without the complicated archiso installation process, but directly using a drive image that I create somehow?

I heavily customized Arch Linux and now want to make real bootable media out of it.ġ.
