I have an internal SSD with a dual boot arch linux/Windows 7 grub. I bought a usb to sata adapter and plugged the usb to a toshiba laptop - the system starts to boot normally from the USB device, up to the point where the animated Windows pictogram appears (description from here). Then I get a bluescreen (STOP: 0x7B).
Safe mode, last driver loaded is aswRvrt.sys
Arch boots to the terminal but when I issue startx it fails with Fatal server error: no screens found(EE)
Is it hopeless ?
EDIT: this is not a duplicate of the question cited - I do not want to install to the usb - I want to BOOT from the usb. Plugging the SSD to a desktop worked out of the box.
