Intel h170 chipset not recognized during installation attempt?
I'm trying to install 64 bit mint 18 on a new machine with an intel h170 chipset mobo (Asrock H170M Pro4). Booting from the 64 bit DVD (I burned the iso to the dvd), I get an error message saying the chipset is not recognized. I do get a couple of TTY type prompt screens and also the "dots" display as it tries to load, but then all goes black and just sits there. 64 bit windows 7 installed fine. Ideas? - Elmar

Re: Intel h170 chipset not recognized during installation attempt?
Are you trying for a dual install or overwrite Windows by Mint?
For either, please backup your Windows data and follow the process
Verify the integrity o the iso.
https://linuxmint.com/verify.php
Check the media too when you boot as you get the option to check it.
Install process
For a single Mint system without Windows please use this.

Re: Intel h170 chipset not recognized during installation attempt?
Great! thanks for the hunt effort. I'm a newbie in this as you might have guessed Now to work through the windows stuff to get this done. I'll post results ... btw, my signature shows that I used to have a 32 bit installation, but that vanished with this machine hardware upgrade.

Re: Intel h170 chipset not recognized during installation attempt?
OK - I tried again with my known good 32 bit mint DVD - and got the same error: Unknown chipset 1360001. so it's not the ISO, it's the actual OS. Am I doomed?

Re: Intel h170 chipset not recognized during installation attempt?
I can only sugest to upgrade your Bios, if an upgrade is available.Please note that it has to be done carefully otherwise your machine can be bricked.

Good luck.

Re: Intel h170 chipset not recognized during installation attempt?
I doubt I can get a newer bios that what this came with, since the mobo is brand spanking new - from windows system information:
BIOS Version/Date American Megatrends Inc. P2.20, 7/5/2016

Re: Intel h170 chipset not recognized during installation attempt?
I have Asus H170I and LM 17.3 and 18 work perfectly. You may need a BIOS update.

FWIW, there are 2 updated BIOS files on the ASRock website: 7.00 & 7.10

I did the UEFI BIOS UPdate - no change in the liveCD behavior (black screen and no activity).

And failure in the same way - unknown chipset from 17.3, 18 and 18.1; ah well - mobo is too bleeding edge for the current crop of Linux's,I guess.

Re: Intel h170 chipset not recognized during installation attempt?
I don't have that motherboard, mine is listed in my signature. I just looked up yours and found those links.
I have seen that fedora tends to be on the bleeding edge, so they might support that chipset with a newer linux kernel. Most drivers are built into the kernel, so newer kernels are most likely to support newer hardware.

So if I want to stay with Mint (which I really like btw), I will need to wait for version 19, which should have an updated kernal?Sgthawker wrote:... newer kernels are most likely to support newer hardware.

Version 18.1 can be downloaded. May be using same kernel as version 18.I am not sure.elmarts wrote:So if I want to stay with Mint (which I really like btw), I will need to wait for version 19, which should have an updated kernal?Sgthagwker wrote:... newer kernels are most likely to support newer hardware.

Re: Intel h170 chipset not recognized during installation attempt?
No, both Linux MInt 17.3 & 18 support the Intel H170/Z170 chipset. There is something wrong with your mobo or BIOS.elmarts wrote:So if I want to stay with Mint (which I really like btw), I will need to wait for version 19, which should have an updated kernal?Sgthawker wrote:... newer kernels are most likely to support newer hardware.
