OH MY GOD! It actually works now. Thank you SO MUCH for your help. I was about to lose my mind over this. You're a hero. :cool: Hooowever, this thing still does something weird. Whenever I start the netbook, it STILL says this: But when I press "Ok", I actually get to the Boot Manager...

If I see correctly, that video only shows, how to switch to Legacy, which I've tried before. Doing so leads to this: Intel UNDI, PXE-2.1 (build 083) Copyright (C) 1997-2000 Intel Corporation This Product is covered by one or more of the following patents: US6,570,884, US6,115,776 and...

Okay, I managed to (somehow) install Linux Mint on my drive. At least I think, that it has worked. However, the newly installed OS still won't boot on its own. So I followed these instructions (#12) exactly step by step. But for some reason, it STILL doesnt't boot Linux Mint from the...

I'm afraid I have no idea, how I could do that. As I said: Booting from USB doesn't work for some weird reason.

Hey. Thanks for your comment. =) Unfortunately this doesn't work either. When I select "root" in the Recovery Menu I get this: sulogin: cannot open password database

Hi and thank you for your reply. =) I've already tried to repair the damage done to the OS, but that doesn't work, mainly due to the internet connection not working on this thing. I'm pretty sure the internal WLAN-device is broken (just like some other hardware components). After all this thing...

Hello everybody! Since it might be seen as a little rude, if I'd just stumble onto this platform with nothing but a technical problem, I thought, that it might be appropriate to give a little backstory, what lead me here: First of all I have to admit, that I am not at all well-versed, when it...
