Hello everyone.
I'm trying to set up a little computer for my kids to use and want to swap the OS to sugarlabs for them, to play safe.
The laptop already has linux on it, but this is where it gets complicated for me.
I am using my Mac, and Etcher, to burn the file to a USB and when the other laptop begins to load, I change the boot order to the USB (which it detects) but it just restarts and restarts.
I'm thinking that my fault is
a) the laptop is just too old to handle it
b) I've downloaded the wrong distro for my system
c) I've not set the usb correctly (but Etcher doesn't seem to give any settings to tweak).
d) none of the above
Any help is much appreciated and thanks in advance
