Hi everybody,
I downloaded Bodhi 5.1.0 Legacy & with the help of UNetbootin I made an installation media on USB drive.
Now, I want to install it on my Laptop (Dell Studio 1535 with 2 GB RAM, Core 2 Duo Processor, AMD ATI HD moblity 3450 Graphics which is presently running Window 10 OS). When I tried it says "unable to find a medium containing a live file system" & some other messages like "initramfs".
I tried it again & again but failed each time.
Please help me, as I am new to Linux.

Please explain in detail. I will really be thankful.

can you try making the live usb with another program? i have heard that rufus with the dd option works well.

Agree with @cordx, on Windows, use Rufus: https://rufus.ie/ . UNetbootin does not always produce bootable media with all distro images.

Dr Sam I ran into the same problem & ran this from the Linux side:
USB Creator is an official tool to create Live USB...
From the Windows side use YUMI Bootable Live USB...

I imagine the reason the OP used unetbootin to attempt to create the bootable usb is that it is the first option given/explained on the bodhi site. I think it may be a corrupted download. Verifying the download is the step explained immediately prior to the create bootable usb and if that is the problem it can't be corrected by other than a new/good download. Hopefully this was not the case and the OP has resolved the problem.

yeah unetbootin doesn't work with bodhi 5.x. Gotta use dd.

I agree 100% that Unetbootin does not work with the Bodhi Distro!

Yet the first option on creating a bootable usb is to use unetbootin. Maybe someone should inform them that it doesn' 'work'.

Well, it does in fact work for Bodhi 4.5, as described.

But I 100% agree. It's like the most common install issue anyone reports. Be better to just delete the unetbootin advice than leave it in! But this has been happening since 5.0RC....

UNetbootin is not worth your time just try anything else...

I finally got the solution. I used Rufus instead of UNetbootin to make bootable USB drive. & the most important thing is- I used it as DD form & not as iso form while making it bootable in Rufus.
& Finally I used USB drive to boot the computer & selected the option try Bodhi & from the desktop I clicked install the Bodhi & VOILA it installed without any problem.

Then get it updated.
But now the problem is about it's graphics. I am unable to install it's graphics driver downloaded from AMD site.

I will put more details about in later post.

Anyway, thanks everybody.
