Re: UEFI Build Test - firenice03 - 11-05-2018

So as I did with past UEFI tests:  same set up/hardware as previous actually
Kangaroo is UEFI only (no legacy) SecureBoot = Enabled
Dual boot with Win10; LL4.2 installed to external MMC (SD) card.

I created a USB (in Windows) from a separate system via Win32disk and the LL4.2_64bit UEFI ISO.. I booted the USB with secureboot enabled and into the Live Environment.
I checked disks, removed old LL3.x partitions all together.

Started the Install from desktop - using the newly creates partition.
All options were "default" with the exception of "Something Else" (didn't download updates nor 3rd party) - English locales and skipped the connection to WiFI (wifi only for this device).
I installed the the boot manager to mmcblk1, the same where LL is installed.

Install was simple, straightforward and quick as usual.
After Install = Checked for updates which inform I'm up to date.
Code:
uname -r
       4.15.0-38-generic
cat /etc/llver
       Linux Lite 4.2

Need to go through my usual tweaks for this system (wifi stability) I'll poke around more, check boot process time - haven't removed the VBOX stuff but 1st boot didn't seem out of the norm...
*Update I have since removed VBox - is faster .. ~30sec boot time.

There may have been an error on boot about "failed mem for rom" that blinked up on the splash but I'll update after a reboot (I started this post)..
*Update yes "Failed to allocate mem for rom" - briefly

So far so good and yet another good looking rendition!!!

I'll post/update if you want or need any screenshots or output let me know Smile

Re: UEFI Build Test - Valtam - 11-06-2018

Bug found. /etc/apt/sources.list. folder is missing all the 3rd party repo including LL and other files. Will look into it.


Re: UEFI Build Test - Valtam - 11-06-2018

Fix attached, those that are using this UEFI build NEED this archive.

1. Open /etc/apt as root
2. Copy apt.zip to /etc/apt
3. Double click on apt.zip and extract, overwrite all when prompted.


Re: UEFI Build Test - Valtam - 11-06-2018

I've re-upped and tested a new ISO online. Original post updated.

Hello,

Just to bring my very little contribution...

I downloaded LL 4.2 UEFI 64-bit on USB key and try it today on the new PC (Win10) of my son, and it's working fine !

I didn't try to install on the HDD as my son is using Win10 for his job.

Probably why it kept saying I was up-to-date Smile..
I can run the above and test... And if you like I can re-install with new ISO..
