Hey there,
I would greatly appreciate some help with installing LL 2.2 on my desktop. Please excuse terms or language I use because I'm still a bit of a noob when it comes to Linux. Not completely noob since I have used Ubuntu and Mint for about half a year.
I created a boot usb stick with which I successfully installed LL2.2 on my laptop. No problems and it runs really well. I'm very happy with it. This morning I want to install it on my desktop as well, both are 64bit by the way, but I think the UEFI bios is causing troubles because all I usually get is a white screen with blinking cursor. Once I thought it started installing but then the screen went black.
Before I started installing I went into the bios and set everything to legacy (only), but it didn't had the effect I had hope for.
