Tomorrow I have my exam and I am getting errors in the network compatibility test, although I have great internet connectivity with a minimum of 50 Mbps speed.

Is installing Cockpit during a remote EX200 allowed (or even possible)?
Just wondering if that's allowed and if the testing environment can talk to the Cockpit server over the network bridge.

What do I do if the USB Image does not work correctly on any device I own or USB stick? It goes to 100% loading into memory and from there on, nothing for like 30 mins. I do not receive any answers on chat. Probably this not a standard question with a button for this answer.

Hi @CornelStefan,
What kind of workstation are you using? (PC or Mac)
Mac already reported several issues and very less chance for successful
booting with exam ISO (as per experience from other members).

These are my tries:

Ryzen 3900X/x570 board -> tower
Thinkpad T470
Lenovo B590 -> Ivy Bridge era laptop
AMD A320/Athlon 200GE Tower
Asus G751JT 

USB Sticks:
- USB3 Kingston
- USB3 Adata
- USB3 Sandisk

Burned with Fedora tool (the tool never worked for me in the last 10 years of installing Fedora).
Tried with Rufus and DD on Linux.

Tried both the new and old image. It usually gets to 100% loading into memory and then it locks up. Drivers for USB keyboard/mouse just die and it doesn't even dump you into rescue mode or at least kernel panic. It does nothing.
on the 3900X machine it got after like 40 mins to dracut-timeout.

I also went through 3 different computers and 3 different drives to get mine to boot. I ended up having to use my surface pro which has no ethernet port and 1 USB port. Support told me it is a driver issue and the image only works on certain models of systems.
