I am not getting boot option even after pressing esc key repeatedly during start up. I start my notebook starting pressing esc key to get boot option but instead it boot from hard drive and windows 8 is getting loaded.

Please help me in getting boot option as I want to format windows 8 and install Ubuntu 12.04 using usb drive.

I have already made my usb stick bootable.

Regards, Pise

  • @Loper324 I was trying to post the answer but it was not allowing me to post. There was some validation that question can be answered after certain hours. So now I am posting the answer. Thanks

It should be f10. If not f2 and f12 are sometimes the lucky numbers as well
