I found the problem described here

Many wasted hours thanks to HP

Re: Checking for bluetooth hardware

If I assume the "no bluetooth adapters found" is an error and try to get it working what would be the next step?

Re: Checking for bluetooth hardware

Thanks. Can't see anything about bluetooth. So does that mean I definitely don't have it?

According to this page https://support.hp.com/vn-en/document/c02852909
It ought to have it, but I bought it 2nd hand a few years ago & don't know if that would have been an optional feature.

Re: cannot boot live CD on brand new box

Just tried one more thing... hitting F6 during boot which sounds like it is supposed to trigger compatibility mode. Still dead. Looks like either there is a solution changing something in the bios or it is impossible to boot mint on this machine. Shame cos I liked it when i installed on a friend's l...
