Hello Andrew, > ES1-111M running BIOS v1.13 and have had no problems booting from an > external USB stick to install Debian (using legacy mode -- I haven't > tried UEFI). It also worked fine under v1.10 (factory-installed). Thanks, that's good to know. Btw, I'm also using legacy mode. Maybe I should try UEFI to see if it makes a difference. > Thanks so much to you all for looking into the USB issues on this > system.

The feeling that I might be the only one in the world having this kind of problem with this model has been nagging at me for a while. Thanks for letting me know that there are others. cheers, Roland -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-usb" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
