Cant install latest image (linux-lite-6.4-64bit.iso) - fader - 05-12-2023
Hi,
Im trying to install LL 6.4 (linux-lite-6.4-64bit.iso) on my Lenovo T400.
Im booting the image from a USB stick and after choosing Direct install the installer says
"425: out of range pointer: 0xbd6ff020"
"Aborted. Press any key to exit."

A Lenovo T400 might struggle to run a modern OS.
Did the LL 6.4 USB Live boot actually run ?

I'm currently running windows 10 at that laptop. Ssd, 8gb ram...

What utility did you use to write the iso to USB ?
Re: Cant install latest image (linux-lite-6.4-64bit.iso) - fader - 05-14-2023
I did use rufus 4.0p to write the image.
I tried to install all versions down to 5.8. 5.8 worked fine and I noticed that it uses a older grub version. Are there any upgrade path from 5.8 to 6.4?
Re: Cant install latest image (linux-lite-6.4-64bit.iso) - stevef - 05-14-2023
There's no direct upgrade path between LL series (e.g. 5.x to 6.x), only within series (e.g 5.2 to 5.6).
I've read some things about issues regarding Rufus/GRUB combinations - as I guess you have too.
Using the LL 5.8 installation, add Balena Etcher (from Lite Software) and then use Etcher to create a 6.4 USB drive.

Ah! Etcher did the work. Installation went through without any issues.
Thank you!
