Hi All,
Complete newbie to LINUX. Using an old XP HP 2510p (2 GB RAM). Linux Lite works fine off the live cd so I assume hardware OK. Installed a new SSD (Kingspec 64 GB) and loaded Linux.
Some outputs :
Was really looking forward to using Linux but without Hard drive boot it is no use. Could this be a BIOS issue ??? I have made the Hard drive 1st on bootup - get a GIMP error but cant do anything(wouldn't know what to do anyway)
All help gratefully accepted.
Rgds
