  • Plugin a pen drive
  • Run "Disk Utilities" to format the pen drive.
    • Erase and Format to MS-DOS (FAT)
  • Install and run Etcher
    • Select Image
    • Select drive
    • Flash

Install Ubuntu

  • Plugin the pen drive to the laptop
  • Power on the laptop and select the boot menu (e.g. press F11 in my case)
  • Select the pen drive to boot
