USB does not boot when trying to install Linux on my Asus EeeBook X205TA

I looked up your processor and it is actually a 64-bit processor. The thing with these smaller netbooks that have a intel baytrail is that they often have 64-bit processors but 32-bit UEFI firmware. Basically you need a 64-bit Linux distro with a 32-bit bootloader for it to work because as far as I know, 32-bit Ubuntu doesn't have an .EFI file and the 64-bit Ubuntu doesn't have a 32-bit .EFI.

This is what I had to do for mine: http://liliputing.com/2013/10/booting-ubuntu-asus-transformer-book-t100.html

You need use this 32-bit bootia32.efi boot file: https://github.com/hirotakaster/baytail-bootia32.efi and put in in EFI/BOOT/bootia32.efi on your 64-bit live USB drive for it to work.

It's really a pain in the butt. I ended up just sticking with windows 10 and running lubuntu in virtualbox because support wasn't that great for my T100TAF.
