=== Nvidia
If you use a Nvidia GPU and are experiencing significant visual issues while running Fedora from a live USB, it could be that your GPU is not fully compatible with the FOSS Nouveau driver. One possible workaround for this situation is to do the following 3 steps:
1. During the live USB boot process, hit `e` at the GRUB boot menu.
2. Find the line that begins with `linux`, and add `nouveau.modeset=0` to the end of that line.
3. Press `<ctrl>` + `x` to resume the boot process.
