I’m basically brand new to Linux other than an old pc I ran Ubuntu on for about a year rarely using it. I’m using a gigabyte H81M board with 16gb ddr3 gtx 560ti and an i5-4460 with ethernet and am running into the error in the image below when installing. Loads into grub shows Ubuntu loading then goes to this error. Loads fine on my main computer but won’t work on this one so assuming it’s a bios setting. Secure boot is off. I went thru every forum on google for a few hours.

#

I can boot to this too

old wing Probably flashed incorrectly

I have installed the iso to two different flash drives and even attempted directly to the ssd. I’ve installed Ubuntu before to a different pc and it worked fine but this new pc is posing issues. When I ran it on my main pc with the same sad it loads perfectly fine

It may be Ubuntu’s kernel

#

It may be a bit old or new for you computer, can I suggest Debian?

#

It’s not as updated as Ubuntu but should work fine

#

Also one more thing to note about Debian, it’s a bit more hands on

I will try that in the morning I know this pc runs windows 10 perfectly fine so this is a side project to see what I can do. Mainly for Minecraft alts to afk some large servers

Ubuntu just seemed easier for Mc install lol

#

I was temped to jump straight for the top and try arch Linux

old wing Jul 11, 2024, 5:06 AM

#

No

#

Don’t

#

I use arch

#

I never recommended it for beginners

#

Unless you want to spend WAYY to much time with documentation, go ahead, let me know how that works out

#

To be fair I have college friends who are teaching me arch slowly which is why I was tempted to try it

It’s a project pc to learn stuff and in no way is a “good” pc

#

#

Will use this

kindred dew Jul 11, 2024, 5:08 AM

#

I have it saved to my main pc

#

#

The official site

#

old wing Jul 11, 2024, 5:08 AM

#

Wiki.archlinux.org is correct

#

Let me know how that turns out

kindred dew Jul 11, 2024, 5:09 AM

What would be the better alternative when it makes me want to throw the computer out the window
