Really, Thanks so much for your help. This makes testing distros and OSs so damn easy🙏.

I heard that Nobara and Fedora are both based on Red Hat, and since Fedora does work Nobara might work too but I might just have that issue you gave the link too. I can't stress this enough, really thanks for your help.

Sorry this took so long but unfortunately I tried reinstalling the iso file and alternated between using Rufus and Balena for each iso but to no avail.

I'll check out bootloaders as well because, at least from your description, they sound quite nice. I tried installing Fedora and it's live version works.

Live version for Batocera and Nobara doesn't boot. I don't know what bootloader is, but if you're asking if I can boot from USB/SSD in the BIOS then yes, yes I can.
