Good to hear reboot issue is solved.

What kind of error did you get with USB2.0? Did you use option TEST A or TEST B with USB2.0?

I have to burn the ISO and try it on an eighth-generation i5, but it might be too recent. I tried to boot from a USB stick where the second-to-last released build was installed, but nothing.

For the moment I have disabled Secure Boot from BIOS and enabled legacy mode. I had the stick with AROS and the penultimate ISO, I had done an installation as usual on HDD, it does not work on the other computer I have, it works to boot on USB 2.

@Amiwell

Thanks for the tests. Please list the exact computer model/motherboard model you tested on and desribe if:
- TEST A option works on this computer
- TEST B option works on this computer

"eighth-generation i5" it too general - it only describes the CPU used but there can be multiple chipset and chips configurations running this CPU and they can have different behavior under AROS.

Also my list shows that you own HP Z400. Does the latest build boot on this machine in TEST B mode (using USB3)?

the laptop is hp elitebook 830 G5 I prepared the USB stick on an X86_64 system, it doesn't boot, on the HP Z400 it works but I have USB 2 ports, the USB 3 ports do not boot but are recognized, I bought an additional USB 3 card

On the hp elitebook 830 G5:

- What happens when you use TEST A? Do you see "cat's eyes' (waiting for bootable media)?
- What happens when you use TEST B? Do you see "cat's eyes'?

On HP Z400:

- What happens when you use TEST B? Do you see "cat's eyes'?
- Is the additional USB3 detected and does booting option TEST B work from ports attached to that card?

I can no longer boot from the USB stick; it doesn’t appear in the menu. Yesterday I had to try several times before the USB stick was recognised. The previous build didn’t have this problem; now I’m not sure if it’s down to my PC:

Question: I’m using VMware on a PC with USB 2.0 ports to install the build. Does the USB 3.0 flash drive have to be connected to a USB 3.0 port (configured in VMware), or can it be connected to a USB 1.1 or 2.0 port?

Another question: can the build also be installed on a USB 2.0 flash drive?

After lots of attempts, I managed to boot them from USB 3

This is the error I get if I choose to boot from USB 2, see screenshot
