[SOLVED] AMD Installation,

I recently got an AMD 13 inch framework laptop, but I am wondering, I tried installing daedalus, but its not paying attention to my boot usb drive.

It has a live usb, but for some reason, it is failing. Anyone had this problem with framework amd laptop?

Thanks in advance.

If so, can you tell me what I need to do , to get my framework computer working with devuan?

Re: [SOLVED] AMD Installation,

I guess its due to the "bios" of this new machine. Have you ever worked with UEFI? I guess this Framework laptop is UEFI only.

To boot an USB stick you will need to call up a function called boot override. On my workstation its F8, on my travelling laptop its F12. Read the manual to find out how this works with your new toy.

Re: [SOLVED] AMD Installation,

Devuan installs to either MBR or UEFI, so it will be that your laptop needs to be set to boot from external USB before internal disk.

Re: [SOLVED] AMD Installation,

Had that happen when I first tried booting to a USB. Rebooted to the bios and found it last in the boot order. As @Camtaf posted, I saved it to first and it boots to a USB.

Re: [SOLVED] AMD Installation,

Seems I made a huge stupid mistake when I tried the first bunch of times to load it.

I didn't disable secure boot!

Guess what I did once I realized that? I think you know.
