This is the method I've used in the past on my Libreboot X60 and Libreboot X200 machines. The last time I researched it, I learned that booting from USB in Libreboot was somewhat unreliable, at least in some configurations. It might depend on which USB port you use, so please try different USB ports. It might depend on the USB stick, so maybe try another stick. It might also be important to have the USB stick plugged in before you power up the machine. Finally, it might be a matter of chance, so you might need to try it several times before it works. Please let us know how it goes. Regards, Mark
