Got a strange one with my Dell Latitude 7350 failing to load EasyRE.
I have switched to legacy, switched off secure boot and changed the boot order.
The Fat32 formatted USB stick correctly boots the initial GNU GRUB three line menu and I choose Easy Recovery Essentials.
Then lots of lines of code flash by, including what appears to be attempts to locate the .uzip that is definitely on the USB stick (which consists of 200Mb of 232 files with 5 files and a folder in the top directory so that looks good).
Eventually it gives up and comes up with Boot Halted.
I can never reach the GUI menu to be able to choose automated repair.
I've tried creating another flash drive but has the same effect.
Anyone think of why it's not working ?!
Thanks
Further to above: I can confirm that the flash drive correctly boots another laptop into the ERE GUI menu so there's nothing seemingly wrong with the flash drive.
I can correctly boot on my laptop to a command prompt using a Windows recovery flash drive I created when I first bought the laptop.
So that means there's nothing wrong with the flash drive or the laptop booting seemingly leaving me with an incompatibility with the ERE on my particular laptop.
