i followed a “install any linux distro in 5 minutes” guide and after just 14 hours i finally have an OS that is running properly
as a long time hater i must say its very nice and i like it a lot, especially considering microsoft is hellbent on making windows the worst OS as quickly as possible. i will say, im a big nerd and this stuff comes to me pretty easily but i still think hoping normies will adopt this is kinda insane
anywho, its the year of linux or so i keep hearing
also if anyone knows why my keyboard keeps disconnecting every 30 minutes or so, i would very much like to know why. its an anne pro 2 that i am using with a wired connection
Did you have to use an old version of Etcher?
TAILS, the distro for tor/darknet usage, says that people should not use Etcher because the program sends telemetry data back to their servers, ie it records your IP address and what type of distro installer you made.
TAILS is currently recommending that people use Rufus instead. There is also another program for creating bootable USBs called Ventoy.
I always make bootable usb using the simple ‘dd’ command line tool.
Ventoy is among the most blessed software I’ve ever used
I did not assuming whatever version they have listed on their websites download page is the most recent.
Is this a common problem?
Idk, it was just the biggest obstacle I ran into.
