I did a vanilla install of Mint, making no changes to it and no updates, to get things ready, and tried the 17.1 usb install ... it worked and everything installed! But, unfortunately unable to boot in: error 1962 no operating system found, boot sequence will automatically repeat. Posting via ipad. ...

I'm on UK-time ... That's great I'm on CEST. ... Not done that before ... Don't worry it's magic ;=) It will be fun you'll see. I'll go scribbling something down in a PM to you by tomorrow. :puppy: That's great, fehlix; just an hour difference. Looking forward to the magic stuff, and hear from you ...

Why not having a quick remote support session in the next days? If that would feasible for you and you do not have a too slow network-connection I might send you a PM with instructions to set this up. For the technically interested folks what we might do within such a support-session to convince th...

I'm sorry, I don't know, but thank you, fehlix, for summarising things :-) There's nothing in the inxi details or boot information that shows a potential issue? I followed the instructions to check the USB and iso, but can't find any CDs. I've earlier tried another USB and another MX download, and i...

Hi and thank you very much for suggestions. Sorry, but I'm getting too confused. I have to say I've had no issues with other installs, or the usb keys, etc. There aren't any bad blocks was what the tests showed up, and no damage to drive. I don't know what dd-image and liveUSB difference is. Looking...

Sorry if this is taking a lot of time or getting confusing. If anything looks relevant in the system specs above, might that gi...

I'm on Mint Mate 18.3 at this point. Fine! You need run the iso check also navigate into your folder with the latest MX iso and run and compare the iso md5sum MX-17.1_April_x64.iso c2ef3d943898b4ebbd28f40a2eae14ee MX-17.1_April_x64.iso If you are on Mint's MATE you can run Mint's USB-image writer t...

Just do the lsblk to check the current device nam and run the badblock. After badblocks runs without error do the MX-USB-installer with the dd-image-mode. an do a reboot from the dd-imaged USB-stick. Have you rechecked the ISO-checksum? Posts are crossing over and I'm quickly editing. Apologies for...
