Re: I'm Having Trouble Booting Mint with an MSI Board
i5-12400 You will need the edge version of the iso for that, has a later kernel with support for your hardware. Instead of rufus try ventoy, it is a multi-boot solution, once you have installed ventoy to a stick you copy (not burn) isos to it. https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?p=2389786&am...

Re: Linux Mint on a Dell Wyse 5010 (another thread)
Ventoy will tell you it is not a secure boot platform and then give you a list of the isos on the stick. Should not be a problem.

Re: Windows and android with internet but not with Linux Mint
Mint menu > admin > system reports, system information on the left, copy/paste the output into your post. That gives us information on your system.

Re: Appimage
Is there a specific feature in v3.3.3 that is not in v2.4.2 (the version available from the standard repos) that requires you to use an appimage?

Re: Can't get into setup
If you want help you had better tell us something about your hardware, what CPU, what graphics, which version of mint are you trying to install?

Re: Refresh an Old Farht's memory on Installation
Legacy boot there is only room for one bootloader per drive so select the drive you are installing mint to as the location for grub.
I've been running win7 for years in a VM with virtualbox.

Re: Linux mint 21.3 SD card speed slow
Lucky you, at least you can read it. When I plug the SD card from my camera into the SD slot in my T430 it refuses to read it. When I plug the SD card into an SD/usb adaptor no problems. If I format the card in linux (fat32), the camera refuses to read it and insists on reformating it. Other SD card...

Re: Unusable space during install. Primary/Logical Q's
Shrinking win - disable hibernation (also called fast start) to remove hiberfil.sys and disable virtual memory to get rid of pagefile.sys. Then try shrinking again. These two files can be at the end of a partition and stop win shrinking as much as you want. When done, re-enable virtual memory. If th...

Re: How to install Cinnamon 21.3 onto a Windows 10 PC?
Use the edge version of the LM21.3 iso. Secure boot is broken in the standard iso. That's if you want secure boot, I always disable it.

I've been watching this topic but didn't really have anything to add to the direction axrusar was pointing you in. I'm not a fan of disks and suggest you learn you to edit fstab manually - it can create messy fstab options with un-necessary options. This might get you started: https://forums.linuxmi...

Re: Best practice for upgrading Linux Mint
Creating a "manual" script by taking note of all installed packages and option change is something that never occured to me It did take me about three weeks (not full time and a lot of testing) to generate, and as I said over 1,000 lines. There is a lot repetition, e.g. sudo apt install p...

Re: External SSD no longer mounts properly after kernel update
I would revert to the previous kernel and see if the problems go away.

Re: Some curious data regarding hard drive stats
Size, taking Kdiskmark as an example - something I would use rarely and it wants 2.5GB drive space. Yes, I know subsequent flatpaks require less. I'm running on a 40GiB
