The first few tries failed. In two cases, the system didn't even shut
down properly after the boot from the USB stick failed. One of those
resulted in the CPU overheating. A friend (now retired; used to work
for Cray and IBM) said something, I don't remember what, that triggered
a vague memory that on my work station, booting from a USB stick only
works from one or two specific ports, which take USB-2 (not USB-3)
sticks. So I re-did the mediawriter, this time writing the download to
a USB-2 stick. Then I put that stick in the first USB-2 port. It
worked. (I always wanted to stick it to my tower!) I have not yet
tried to do anything "rooty" yet.
Tomorrow, I'll stick it to my workstation again, and try to do something
"rooty", and report.
