Boot liveCD USB on PC that likes the Live CD. 2. Use that LiveCD to install to a differenet UCB stick Thanks for the other suggestions. For background: The PC that LiveCD fails on has an existing Fedora installation that dual boots with Windows 10. The Fedora was install about 5 years ago. Somewhere in last 3 or 4 Fedora releases Live CD started to fail. The Live CD gets into systemd and is happily starting serrvices. It hits "Monitoring for LVM2 mirrors" and hangs. I've waited for over an hour just in case it pops out. So its not BIOS the mahine can boot the USB stick and get into systemd. I'm not aware of kernel options that will help with debugging the hang. But I know I can debug this if I have a USB stick that I can edit to add in debug code to the systemd unit that is hanging. Hence the the question.
