Haiku hangs at rocket icon

[yochanon]

I installed haiku-master-hrev53971-x86_64 onto my Samsung 64GB flash drive using Etcher.

When I rebooted and go into BIOS to choose that dive to boot from, it does as it's supposed to and starts booting from the flash drive.

The very first boot from the flash drive froze after the little 'rocket ship' lit up.

I had to hard reboot, choose the flash drive, and this second time it got past the little icons lighting up and I got a screen with the little 'hane' pointer, but it hanged there. No icons, nothing else but the pointer.

I had to hard reboot again and I simply booted into my normal system to come here to make a report/bug.

I didn't bother putting the flash drive in an USB2 slot as this is *exactly* the same thing that was happening to me before and I was told to try a USB2 slot with it.

It appears that the USB3 is still a problem for Haiku to boot from. The flash drive I used is brand-spanking new and I've already had two other OS's on it for playing around with and it is still working fined at the present moment as I booted into my linux (Slackware), opened gparted and reformatted it so I could use it as storage space for the time being.

This almost certainly means the problem is not USB3 related at all; USB3 problems occur during the "storage" icon, and if you get past that, then it means USB3 initialization has at least succeeded.

"Rocket ship" icon stalls usually mean the graphics driver failed initialization. Try using the "fail safe graphics" option in the bootloader.

No reply in 20 months, and many things have been fixed in USB since then even if that was the problem.
