Steps to make a bootable USB to install LinuxCNC. was created by jeffmaxwell
I am trying to install the Trixie/Debian/linux cnc image that RodW recommends. Can't seem to find the right steps. I have the mesa cards,
HP core I5 computer with 16 gigs of ram and 1 tb hard drive. I have been using computers for a long time but I can't seem to make any progress
doing this install. Suggestions? Any help will be much appreciated. I have had the Plug and Go kit for a few years and would like to get it working for the control of an engraving machine I am building. Thanks Jeff

Use the software Tommy linked to to burn the ISO to a USB stick.
check the BIOS is set up to allow booting from USB
Disable UEFI/Secure boot while you are there.
Plug the USB in and boot your PC which should load the installer from the USB
