Can’t boot Ubuntu from USB drive












0














I have installed Ubuntu to a USB flash drive and when I set my laptop to boot to the USB drive in the BIOS I will just see a blank grey screen. I left it for a while but it was just the same thing. On my main drive I am running Windows 10. I used this guide:https://tutorials.ubuntu.com/tutorial/tutorial-create-a-usb-stick-on-windows#0 to install Ubuntu to the USB drive



Any help would be greatly appreciated
