Re: [OS] nvOC easy-to-use Linux Nvidia Mining

So I've imaged my USB, set up onebash & plugged the USB into my rig. The monitor immediately showed " grub rescue".

Questions:
1. I assume this the process of converting the file from windows to linux- correct?

2. If so, this process has been running for 30 minutes. How long should it take?

This shouldn't happen.
Try flashing the USB again

Flashed 3 times. Even left fullzero's oneBash mining info intact on the 3rd attempt. Same result.

Maybe it won't work with this MoBo?:

what image are you using?

Did you forget to extract the image from the zip before imaging?

v0016. Yes I extracted it. I'll try v0017.

what usb do you have? i would get a 32gb one if you can

z170 is a difficult chipset. There might be a secureboot or similar setting that is interfering with Ubuntu loading. If v0017 doesn't work it is probably worth emailing asrock and asking them what bios settings to use for Ubuntu 16.04.

I have read somewhere that Ubuntu 16.10 fixed several incompatibility problems esp motherboards - I d a lot of reading - I have to go find where did I see that posting

NvOC should already have most of the updates up through 16.10 and beyond. There are some minor differences when you explicitly "upgrade" vs install individual updates but, I don't believe chipset support it one of these differences.
