I've had horrible encounters for the past few days I installed this OS... I can't even begin to name them... Now to get rid of it is a huge problem.... I've changed Bootable USB drives... I tried running another OS and I got hit with this error "failed to load ldlinux.c32 boot failed press a key to retry" I tried another OS and I got this error "invalid magic number you need to load the kernel first"... when I ran Bodhi in the bootable USB it ran fine without any errors... what settings do you guys have enabled that I can't get rid of this OS

I've changed Bootable USB drives... I tried running another OS and I got hit with this error "failed to load ldlinux.c32 boot failed press a key to retry" For this consider: - Formatting your usb to FAT/ FAT 16 not the default FAT 32
- If you used Rufus or Ventoy go to the current version
- If you are using BIOS consider upgrading it
As an aside, my standard practice is to run in live mode and then install the iso to a usb and run on the usb as a more thorough check before installing on my actual hardware.

It's FAT16 ..And there's no way I could enter live mode when I'm being faced with these errors

I used Balena Etcher, no problems at all. Can you explain the problems you are having with your system in order to be able to people to help you?

And there's no way I could enter live mode when I'm being faced with these errors Why not? We can't help if you don't give us any clues. If you are getting any errors booting live, what are they? Have things changed since your first post, where you seem to say live is fine? Or are you talking about another OS?
when I ran Bodhi in the bootable USB it ran fine without any errors...

Are you not gonna help me bruh You'll have to name them, and not just begin to do so. We need details. Obviously we don't have these errors ourselves, and cannot see your screen. Then when can try to help you bruh.

Even the Linux community with the reputation for being one of the friendliest, welcoming and most helpful has its limits. As has already been stated, please provide details, or I’ll have to assume you don’t really need support, and are probably trolling. Please prove me wrong.

Yeah this is way too wague. As hippytaff said, you need to provide details for us to help you, otherwise we will just assume that you are a bored Linux-hater with way too much time on their hands.
