Wanting to dump Win10 for 16.04LTS. I've tried literally dozens of workarounds, and feeling that HP just won't allow a USB boot to Linux. Legacy on, correct boot order, secure boot disabled, etc. I've made the stick using three different apps, the most recent being Rufus w/both UEFI and BIOS MBR setting. I know the stick works. This is nutz.

Many thanks to David Foerster for his pointing me to the nomodeset trigger. Dozens of inquiries, and I saw nothing on that until he posted. It worked. It's now obviously an issue as to the machines' Nvidia/AMD setup and should be cured with driver updates. Very grateful for the help.
