Boot problems after installing LL to USB
#2
Code:
I have installed LinuxLite 4.2 onto a USB flash drive from a DVD containing the .iso.

Sounds like this is exactly what you did.. To clarify?

You downloaded the ISO and made a DVD (LiveDVD) and with a USB plugged in you installed LL, and doing so installed LL onto the USB (not the hard drive)..
And in doing so Grub (LL boot loader) was installed to the USB...

This probably why LL/Windows boots fine with the USB plugged in and they don't without it. And this is just my take on it...

You could most likely move grub to the HDD but without the USB attached you would again error. The easiest would be to reinstall LL to the HDD (create a partition) then LL and Windows would boot successfully with or without the USB..
