Note
Linux displays an error that says it failed to re-read the partition table but will

mkdosfs -n LABVIEW_RT /dev/sda3
.

running on your system, enter the command
grub-install --version
. If the version
is 1.98 or later, your system is running GRUB2.
Caution
If you do not follow the correct installation procedures, upgrading to
GRUB2 can damage your system. Contact National Instruments if you require
assistance with this process.
13. Specify the nomodeset flag to avoid screen resolution issues by completing the following
steps:
