    Lenovo Flex 14, AMD Ryzen 3, new Windows 10 - Mint 19 Cinnamon USB stick problems

    Hello Wizard, I went through it again and I don't see secure boot. The nearest I see is 'AMD Platform Security Processor' [ Enabled]. Steve

    UEFI and legacy support with UEFI first both booted straight into Windows. Legacy only boots first into a countdown screen, then a grey screen. I tried again through the boot menu and now it only boots to Windows. Steve

    Problem logging on

    Thank you Zaki. Some other solution's involved working the command line, but I can' do anything at the sign in page. Ctrl+Alt+F1, doesn't do anything, I'm not allowed an alternate sign-in name, --nothing. Steve

    Problem logging on

    My Linux mint 19 also didn't show up for work a couple of days ago. I have been printing these instructions and codes but my Linux seems to be extra stubborn.

    Lenovo Flex 14, AMD Ryzen 3, new Windows 10 - Mint 19 Cinnamon USB stick problems

    Hello Wiz, Last night we had a power outage. This and another desktop were in suspended mode. The other one restarted fine but this one,starting Linux, stops at ICE authority not recognized, so it does become a good test of a boot-able USB. So I started with the USB that I downloaded and burned...

    TechnoJunky, sure appreciate your reply. I plugged the mint 19 in the other USB port but still no recognition, it does light up though. I havn't set up windows ( don't like Cortana). I have read that some laptops are finicky. I also read reviews on this product on Amazon, and a few are...

    OK, thank you for your patience fellow Linux users. I ordered and now received a commercial thumb drive with Linux mint 19. The laptop doesn't recognize it . I went through UEFI and boot menu's but it just isn't recognized. So I plugged in an older thumb drive with Mint 18 and still no...

    I see that I do have BalenaEtcher on my computer. I think that was for a clone job though.

    wizardfromoz and Zaki Sl-Lounis, Yup, those lines of text would be good to know but they flash so fast. I don't know how to pause or slow, and that computer isn't functional yet to be able to take a screen shot. Linux4Steve
