I suppose I was a bit short on details. I am using Rufus to create a bootable USB image and am actually using XPEnoboot_DS3615xs_5.2-5644.5 (earlier was a typo).I am able to boot and start the 'installation/upgrade' but it freezes every time I try. It is never at the same place, but has always been while loading a different module. Any thoughts on how to troubleshoot?
