[Fedora-livecd-list] Tip: boot from a Windows 8/10 machine

Hi All, By default, Windows 8 (Frankenstein the Elder) and Windows 10 (Frankenstein the Younger) do not actually shutdown or power off. They go into suspend. This is to make Windows look like it boots quickly. This makes it a hassle to get to bios to boot off a flash drive. The do an actual shutdown --> <Win><R> shutdown /s /f /t 00 --> pull the power cord out for 30 seconds --> power back up and guess what the f keys bios is I have see a lot of computer where F12 is the boot option. One where Esc give a list of things to choose from. HTH someone else, -T You can configure the suspend thing off. It is called "Fast Boot". Ping me in the subject line if you want instructions. -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Yesterday it worked. Today it is not working. Windows is like that. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
