SPP 2015.10.0 not working

[phlegmer]

We have recently downloaded the latest SPP for our Prolient servers and it keeps failing in mid-boot from the USB thumb drive.

[     4.100217] i8042:  Can't read CTR while initializing i8042

Fontconfig error:  Cannot load default config file

Warning!!! Unable to mount the file system [cdrom]

Warning!!! Unable to moun the file system

Preboot maintenance mode

/bin/ash:  can't access tty:  job control turned off

I'm able to boot the thumbdrive and get the HP logo on the screen for a while.  But after a minute or so, the error above comes up.

I have tried 2 different Image to USB software (unetbootin and rufus), tried it on 2 different prolient servers, tried redownloading from HP, and reformatted the thumbdrive.  Each attempt fails at the same place. 

Please advise.

Thanks

Try using the HP USB key utility 2.0 that is in the ISO image. It is under /usb/hpusbkey

Wow, had no idea that was in the ISO!  Gave that a shot and all is well!

Thanks a lot!

Thanks! Saved me too! I used Rufus to build a bootable USB thumbdrive, but it would the exact same thing reported by the OP.
