    I want boot linux from a flash drive on a Toshiba P15. It can boot from usb cdrom, but can't seem to get it to boot other external devices.

    If you can boot to a USB device, you should be able to boot to a USB stick without issue. Did you make sure you have all the right files on your USB stick when you attempted to boot to it?
