Interesting #tech problem: I have a Thinkpad X230 and a keychain full of USB drives. I’ve been trying to install a new distro, but no matter what ISO (Slack, BSD, etc) I try, it fails to boot from the USB anywhere past the initial disk enumeration.
Whatever bootloader the distro uses will load, but the actual installer never starts. Tried multiple USBs and multiple distros. CSM is enabled. Ideas? #Techsupport #linux #thinkpad
@moz 64 or 32 bit EUFI?
I think only Ubuntu can install a 64bit OS with a 32 bit EUFI, with some finagling.
@UberGeek Unsure. It’s an x64 system, so I assume it’s an x64 UEFI?
@moz There are some oddball systems with a 32 bit EUFI, but are 64 bit machines.
