Pimping the mini-lathe

I couldn't identify a Bios option to disable UEFI, so next I#m trying this...

The way around this problem is to rename the Debian .iso file to a .img file, and then to write the image to the USB with Win32DiskImager (I used 0.9.5 and it worked fine). The install will then work.

That also didn't work.

Sorry had guests.
Those 2 "methods" will not work as you have seen, that is the "lets touch something, maybe it starts working" type of solutions.
Debian with throw that error for to many things, but one of them is setting the SATA to "native" mode, and the other is not having any devices in the USB ports besides the USB with the image. Have not seen that error since the Wheezy times.
Mint never has such issues, nor had Ubuntu, they just work, so makes me wonder if they are both based on Debian, why the hell does it not work there? Using a completely different installer might have something to do with it.

I had a mouse and a keyboard plugged into other USB ports.

SInce I dont really care which Distro is loaded, tomorrow I'll try the Mint +LCNC 2.8 iso frm here...

I fear that this weeks video is going to be a bit of a lemon.

Hmm, My Odroid arrived today and I got it straight up on Linux Mint using Tommy's method here

I had a Mint 19.3 USB lying around and just used it. Only thing I did in the Bios was to set the boot order so the USB went first.






Bloody amazing!

Sorry Mark!
