[manjaro-dev] [Manjaro Linux Support] Manjaro 0.8.9 live stable wont boot in UEFI

[Ramon Buldo]

Hi,
Rufus works well with Manjaro, is what I use when creating a bootable
USB in Windows. Make sure the partition scheme is "MBR for BIOS and
UEFI" or "GPT for UEFI" and file system is fat32.

Though if you can reach the boot menu (where you can select free or
non-free), its probably another thing.

What is the model of your laptop? If its very new its possible that it
needs a newer kernel. I think the easiest way to test this is using
the latest archlinux ISO (kernel 3.13.5), and see if its boot for you.
If archlinux boots, probably a Manjaro ISO with an updated kernel will
boot too.

Cheers

Ramon
