What file did you extract? Did you use full path or name? Try add a quote '' Hi thanks for the reply.
I'm using a surface pro 5 so I downloaded the first file from the site linked, mv'd it into the folder downloaded via git and ran repack on the .cab file with the our argument being the firmware version 238.167.768.0 | 14:38:14 |
| fauxpas001 | I've taken a run at it again and am back on the final command on step 10 with the same results | 14:38:58 |
| fauxpas001 | I'm just trying to use the name tmp.<name> | 14:39:18 |
| fauxpas001 | I'll try quotes now | 14:39:23 |
| fauxpas001 | Ah you absolute G | 14:42:30 |

Surface pro 5, I got ubuntu 20 on a usb, taken off secure boot and tpm and when I boot into USB the light on the usb just flashes for a sec then it continues to boot into windows again Did you already try to boot the usb through Windows Advanced restart? ( Settings > System > Recovery > Advanced startup > Restart now and then select "Choose an option" > "Use a device" ).
Does the usb stick work with other devices? Did you verify your ubuntu image? Using something like ventoy to put the image onto the usb stick can also help to get it to boot.

Ventoy? I’ve used Rufus to make the image… I’m going to look that up and give it a try | 23:11:59 |

| Rj Manhas | i just used the os installer onto the usb stick | 01:05:06 |
| Rj Manhas | and then it just wiped the drive and install linux | 01:05:14 |
| Rj Manhas | and then in the UEFI settings got rid of the windows boot manager and replaced it with the linux boot manager | 01:05:33 |
