OOPS I apparently replied directly to tuulen. I am now trying to copy that reply to the list. Sorry for the confusion. =============================================================== to the list so you might end up with two copies. DUH!!!] No promises but a thought. You might look at rEFInd. The danger in a suggestion like this is if it does not work out for you in your particular situation, you may have wasted a lot of time. On the other hand, even if that is the case you might learn stuff but based on how you described you original problem, you just want to get to a usable system. (I happen to favor keeping it simple and just get it to work). On the plus side (you can call this anecdotal if you want to downplay the value of the suggestion to use rEFInd or if you like the idea you can refer to my suggestion as the result of a case study -- my limited but successful use of rEFInd when I was very frustrated by the EFI/UEFI interface of an un-named computer manfacturer whose name has an uncanny resembelance to the name you mentioned in your post, but maybe it was just me being a bit dense or worse in understanding what was needed. Anyways, a URL that might get your foot in the door is: http://www.rodsbooks.com/refind/ FWIW, rEFInd is also mentioned on Wikipedia. The URL for that is: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/REFInd The official website makes it clear that donations are appreciated but that is not a requirement as I understand it. Good luck. Let us know if you decide to explore this possibility or if going down this path is tooooooooo much of a distraction of what seems to be your objective to simply can Linux running on -- what was that brand name again? -- computer. ============================================================== On 06/07/2019 10:46 PM, tuulen wrote:
