If you boot into your USB drive but the boot fails or PureOS boot screen does not appear, you might wanna try the following:

  1. Disable secure boot/UEFI boot on your computer's BIOS and try again
  2. Make sure you followed the procedure to create a bootable USB drive
  3. ISO image you burned to your USB might not be downloaded correctly, ensure the download is okay by verifying its sha256 checksum
