HP Recommended
Product: ZBook Firefly G8
Operating System: Ubuntu LTS

I am facing a strange issue where I can't get my new HP ZBook G8 Firefly to boot live Ubuntu from USB.

It did boot successfully to live Ubuntu several times on the same laptop then suddenly, it is going to a blank screen whether I choose "Try Ubuntu" or any other option! The USB is still working fine on other laptops.

I made another USB for a different Ubuntu edition and it hit the same result. I also tried "nomodeset" option and others with no luck.

 

I don't know what happened and why it stopped booting to live Ubuntu.

 

Could someone help please?
