I found that the UEFI will only boot two oses: Windows with 32 bit Linux 14.04 64 bit Even though the UEFI Shell recognizes my usb with puppy Linux install with unetbootin. It will not boot it. Taking the alternative approach: Reduction I used...

Thanks TerryH. Oh the whole thing is so complex and looks like the stick is quite a custom job. I fear it maybe beyond my abilities, The ubuntu preinstalled just does not work well. To begin with, it has the Unity desktop and really has some heavy stuff like libre office and chrome. Discouraged, but...

Function ahead on this project. I have made a bootable usb with unetbootin using puppy precise 5.7. It boots from both of my desktop computers one a 32 bit and the other an i3 with 64 bits. Both of these boot successfully. Tried the usb on a multi port and enabled the usb in the bios. This uses f2 k...

Thanks so much for the replies. I was hoping someone had already done this with this model. You have given me some directions to try. I just wonder how much the manufacturer has locked down this particular model. Will work on this and get back to you. Thanks all! Located this from Intel: https://com...

Solved!

Dear bigpup: You are, of course, right. I had made a live disk of this distro some time ago and was simply using it. I had not been to the site for a long time. I was trying all the usual tools to get a player to work, instead of course, checking the actual website. I used the internal package manag...

Where to find Precise-5.4.3-barebones-0.2.iso? (Solved)

I have been working with the current precise 5.7.1 and find the isos
are too big. Would like a cut down version of this one, but no go. I
did find a cut down version of 5.4.3 but am unable to download it
because of some error in part. Anyone got an iso of this I could have?

Yes, the kernel is as you indicated watchdog

Would much like the appropriate .pet if you could manage it.
