This is an old post, I plan on making a new one with updated details.
I was installing Debian on my Getac F100-G2, and I booted to the live usb perfectly fine. I tested everything and it seemed to work great, except for one time I got logged out randomly. I installed it(overwriting windows) and it completed with no error. When I rebooted, it booted to a black screen and did not provide any error message. I’ve tried booting to the same installation media as well, and it does the exact same. I’ve switched between legacy boot and uefi, which has been an issue in the past with debian. I have also tried booting from a pureos live usb and that hasn’t worked either. Getac devices are for enterprise use more than person, and rather poorly documented, so any help is appreciated!********___
This whole BIOS is cryptic… what is “OS select” supposed to mean with the option for windows 7 or 8.1/10? I’d assume this is related to booting but theres little specification. Also, I can’t perform a bios update
I’m guessing that the 7 or 8.1/10 thing is probably to select between legacy BIOS CSM or UEFI. What is it set to right now? Maybe try playing with that.
