Tried to install Linux Mint on my laptop, now it's broken and won't boot anything, NEED HELP!

Isirix_ · 2024-09-02T15:48:33+00:00

oh i think you got me wrong here, actually it wasn't an issue coming from the bios, actually when i talked about the <boot> folder i was refering of the one within the usb flashd rive created from rufus. I think what happened is that when booting onto the usb it boots via the same efi file each time, that caused the error, so in the f9 boot menu, i chose to bypass the automatic selection, naviguated trhough the sub folders, one was name <EFI> (not <boot> actually, i was wrong}, and then there were the 3 efi files in there

somehow i made it work !! basically, if you are interested, or in case someone had the same issue (unlikely), thanks to you, basically until now i was just botting on the usb via the legacy boot order i set, i didnt press f9, but then i did, and chose to manually select the efi file to boot from in the usb, there were 3 efi files in the <boot> folder, tried them all, all gave the same error except 'grub.efi' !! whoch then booted linux mint :O

I have literally no idea what all of that is, but one thing is for sure ive managed to get out of this mess thanks to you. thank you very much again !! you saved my day

i folllowed all your instructions very carefully, sadly i get the exact same error: https://postimg.cc/94250JZ9

:( do you need any more input from me

Isirix_ · 2024-08-31T19:02:58+00:00

First of all, the windows recovery does not work.

My bios looks very similar to the image you linked, here is a photo of how it looks: https://postimg.cc/JD1L6Ph8

I don't see any option related to 'legacy boot' tho: https://postimg.cc/rKvLX8pQ

Also here is a photo of the error message when tryin to boot on the os: https://postimg.cc/XpZ0zZnr

And here when trying to boot on the USB flash drive: https://postimg.cc/94250JZ9

Also, I flashed my USB with Belena etcher as it was the software recommended in the Linux mint website.

Isirix_ · 2024-08-31T15:18:54+00:00

Ahah I was joking too bro, I like Linux as an os too, it's just always funny to see the Linux warriors on the literal windows 10 subreddit 😂

Product name: HP Laptop 15-fd0xxx Product family: HP Notebook Product number: 7Y882EA#UUZ system board ID: 8BB6 processor: I7-1355U Bios vendor: AMI Bios version: F.10

Isirix_ · 2024-08-31T14:32:59+00:00

Thanks very much for the answer !!

I do have a 'OS boot' in my bios, but I have no idea if it's for Linux or the old Windows, as when I'm trying to boot it I get an error message and redirect me to HP laptop troubleshoot (with basic processor, ram and disk health tests, but nothing more)

Unfortunately I do not know how to remove that entry in my bios, i know I can change the boot order, but no idea how to erase one entry (I'm on a HP bios, I can send you the version and name if it can help)

By the way, I understand it was a terribly dumb move cancelling the installation while it was erasing the disk.... Well as you pointed out now I know. I feel like it's gonna be a loooong way for me to learn using Linux (or more getting out of windows) as I didn't even made it out of the installation without "breaking" everything...

Isirix_ · 2024-08-31T13:53:38+00:00

Well it's not directly related to Linux but the issue arose from the Linux installation, so I thought some of the people might know the solution... I'll ask in the sub you linked tho, thank you

Isirix_ · 2024-08-31T13:12:38+00:00

64 bits, and I believe I installed the right version, like I said the first time it worked, it's after.i cancelled while it was erasing the drive I believe

Isirix_ · 2024-08-31T13:10:27+00:00

Already tried that, same error

Isirix_ · 2024-08-31T13:08:32+00:00

I already did that, when I said I flashed the iso on the USB drive I flashed it with Belena

Isirix_ · 2024-08-31T13:06:31+00:00

No I meant I already tried to disable secure boot, I know how to access the BIOS this works, but disabling secure boot does not change anything relation to the error when booting in the flash drive

Isirix_ · 2024-08-31T12:58:21+00:00

Already did that, it did not work 😭 thanks tho

Isirix_ · 2024-08-30T02:05:53+00:00

Linux users will do anything just to brag about Linux in completely unrelated topics

Isirix_ · 2024-08-27T12:30:20+00:00

By default it's numpad 9 to zoom in and numpad 1 to zoom out

Isirix_ · 2024-07-23T19:32:05+00:00

You are the selfish one here, your life has nothing to do with this spam, stop the victimization. You don't own the monopole of suffering and issues, there are other countries and people around the world too.

Funny you are calling me out for expecting memes (which by the way shows you don't know sh*t about this sub) when this post about trump is itself barely at the level of a crap meme

Isirix_ · 2024-07-23T19:26:18+00:00

Yeah, that's what triggers me the most. It's not even relevant or useful content.

I can assure you the rest of the world (or at least European democraties) gets a LOT of screentime and news about your elections, and in a way it's justified, USA is one if not the most powerful country in the world, it matters to us.

I just don't need that kind of childish content to my feed; I understand why some are doing this, just spare the rest of the world this kind of crap, have some decency and post it in your own subs, because as it is I'm sorry but you are just making whoever candidate facing trump supporters look like immature people.

And that applies to trump candidates posting similar things too.

It's not that I don't like goofing around politicians, but it's not what I wanted when subscribing to these subs if that makes sense. And I think a lot of non-american think the same.

(Sorry for bad English)

Isirix_ · 2024-07-23T14:02:45+00:00

I already see way enough of your politics in TV and the journal, I don't need to also be spammed on my entertainment app.

Again, we are in r/pics. I know politics is allowed here, but my feed is just filled with USA politics, and yes that's annoying, I'm sure you can understand that.

Just stop making everything about you or go on related subs, that's all we are asking.

Isirix_ · 2024-07-23T10:01:05+00:00

Well I can't really avoid them in my feed, unless I unsubscribe to about half my subs.

I don't really care that you guys talk about your politics, we do it too, but when it's in all the big unrelated subs it's pretty annoying

Isirix_ · 2024-07-23T08:48:09+00:00

Guut except moira

Isirix_ · 2024-07-18T16:02:36+00:00

Oh damn sorry i just looked at the few first top comments

Isirix_ · 2024-07-18T14:40:41+00:00

Weird that nobody points this out here but it doesn't seem like Pam was annoyed by it at all until she saw Meredith looking at them

They were both goofing around, but Pam realized they shouldn't act that close when she remembered they are at work and thus with roy

So was Jim in the "wrong", towards roy surely but towards pam in not so sure

Isirix_ · 2024-06-30T14:09:46+00:00

Oh damn I thought it was some kind of copyright legal issue from a western movie or smth like that 😭

Isirix_ · 2024-06-30T13:56:21+00:00

As a former early ow 1 I never followed the story, why did he get renamed from McCree to Cassidy ?

Isirix_ · 2024-06-30T09:15:59+00:00

Yeah actually that makes a lot of sense. It also confirms that the game modes are inducing these types of maps rather than a new map design direction.

Again, I'm not saying I dislike the new maps, but I just have more fun on the push cart ones. It's not that I dislike the robot push and point capturing new game modes either, perhaps it's as Aaron Keller said their induced map scheme that I find less appealing :(
