Hi everyone.
I downloaded the q4os trinity 32 bit iso image and created a usb key with rufus for installation.
Once the installation on another usb key is completed, I restarted the computer but neither the usb key with q4os nor windows start.
I do not know if I am doing something wrong in partitioning the usb key in which I perform the installation.
Can someone help me?
Alternatively it would be possible to have a live version of the latest version of q4os 32bit and run the installation through the live itself?
Thank you!

About a week ago I installed 32-bit Q4OS Trinity to a USB drive and it did not boot. I inspected the root file system on the USB drive and did not find either the UEFI boot loader or the legacy boot loader. Is there an EFI directory or files like ldlinux.sys, syslinix.cfg on the root partition of your USB? If these files do not exists then there musts exists a boot loader on another partition configured to load from your USB drive. In my case I used a different computer to create the USB drive from the target computer and I think this confused the installation software about how to install/configure the boot loader. The solution in my case was to use external tools to install a boot loader to the USB root partition.

Correction: The UEFI boot loader will exists in a separate fat32 EFI partition.

I'm also fairly new to Q4OS but I don't think 32-bit is offered in a Live iso. You will need to install to a hard drive. If you install to a USB hard drive you will probably at least need to setup a bootloader. Your 32-bit system may not boot from USB. You could try Plop! bootloader.
