# If you change this file, run 'update-grub' afterwards to update Unfortunatly this did not produce the desired result as Grub screen is refusing to show.īelow is a copy of the edited file /etc/default/grub: I edited file /etc/default/grub as per your instructions and changed and saved the GRUB_TIMEOUT setting from "1" to "5" followed by:įound linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-4.19.0-5-amd64įound initrd image: /boot/initrd.img-4.19.0-5-amd64 When that finishes reboot and you should see the grub screen. I was hoping the new version of Q4OS would fix this glitch. The booting issue is not new I still have the previous version of Q4OS installed exclusively to my desktop computer which, from day one, is not booting into Grub also.
Partitions: Erase disk (ATA TOSHIBA MK6475GS) and install Q4OS 3.Īfter: Q4OS 587.4 GiB ext4 Swap 8.8GiB swapĪside from not booting into Grub, the system is performing flawlessly on my laptop! Set keyboard layout to English (US)/Default. Keyboard: Set keyboard model to Generic 105-key PC (intl.) - Default Keyboard Model. The numbers and dates locale will be set to Australian English (Australia). The system language will be set to Australian English (Australia) Partitions - BIOS Select storage device: ATA TOSHIBA MK6475GS - 596.2 GiB (/dev/sda)Īfter: Q4OS - 587.4 GiB ext4 Swap 8.8 GiB swapīoot loader location: Master Boot Record of ATA Toshiba MK6475GS (/dev/sda) The display on my Q4OS operating system installer looks similar: I reiterate, there is most definitely no box to tick relating to Grub in "System Installer - Partitions".
Install Q4OS on new ext4 system partition.
Some more info as I can't attach screen shots:Ĭreate new MSDOS partition table on /dev/sda (ATA TOSHIBA MK6475GS).Ĭreate new 610465MB partition on /dev/sda (ATA TOSHIBA MK6475GS) with file system ext4.Ĭreate new 9011MB partition on /dev/sda (ATA TOSHIBA MK6475GS) with file system linuxswap. I was going to attach 3 screen shoots indicating the installation process but can't figure out to make the attachments stick to this post. Installing Grub using live cd (usb) as per tutorial is, as far as I am concerned, complicated and didn't work for me. I erased the HDD completely (unallocated 596.17GiB) and progressed installing q4os.Īfter rebooting the Grub screen is not showing (just text messages). This time I installed GParted, Synaptic and Spectacle prior installing q4os. I re-installed again, this is my 3rd attempt.
