Some months ago I tried many times to install Debian on my Debian
Acer One ...
[*MASSIVE* SNIP]
Did you try all combinations of the following ?
- BIOS/legacy boot mode or EFI boot mode
- text-mode install or GUI install
- 32-bit install or 64-bit install
[large snip]
Then I try to reboot with power button but the machine remains
for many hours in that state... Then after many hours it turns off...
I am NOT familiar with any Acer product. However, there is a useful feature
in my assortment of Lenovo laptops and one desktop. It might be described as
a "panic stop". It is triggered by pressing and holding the power button. It
is *BRUTE* force and regularly causes Debian to run a disk diagnostic on the
next boot. You might check Acer documentation or user group for a similar
function.
Thanks... but, as I described, Debian doesn't even manage to start up on that
machine... and that's my problem... I don't use Windows and so the machine is
there permanently unused, waiting and hoping for next Debian releases to work
in the next - not too far - future...
