Kevin Gates?

Planned on saying this. I am a very judgemental person, but I try not to let it impact my actions.

Not a podcast but I enjoy watching 20v1s on youtube.

If I feel like it, I might use DD to clone my drive and put in on a hard drive. Usually I don’t back up, though.

No just a bad memory. it was exiv2 all along, I checked.

Me too i went back to the linux install i wouldve used it on, and I couldn’t find exiv4 just exiv2 so I misremembered.

yes it was literally the same as exiv2. I remember it from maybe 6 months to a year ago. I went to the install which I remembered using it on, and it was exiv2, so I am wrong.

In a few states it’s a law but mostly it’s a suggestion and at worse you’ll get kicked out. I know New York has a law and maybe California.

This has me at a :.|:; for words

I hadn’t heard of it before, but it seems like a solid company.

So there are some linux laptop companies that make dedicated linux laptops. See Purism and Tuxedo. They are very compatible and customizable, but I would recommend taking a look at Tuxedo because they have a much wider range of devices. Purism is like if Apple was a pro-consumer company. Their devices are all 100% libre, but are quite expensive.

Does this give you any increased sense of security as a non-american?

Thanks for the advice, but this was sollved already, I removed the SSD and the USB booted, so I wiped the SSD and put a GPT partition table on it. Then, I could boot and install.

Yeah I’ll plug it into my computer and edit the grub settings. Terrible that the USB drive just doesn’t boot with an SSD inside, even though I manually selected the USB from the boot menu. That made me break my water seal and this device lost its IP rating 🙃. Thanks very much for your help however, your affirmation about the unplugging the SSD was was very helpful.

That didn’t work either but I solved it by removing the ssd.

It works without an SSD!!! OMG I knew it wasn’t bricked

A USB keyboard works fine, and also the USB drive is detected when it is bootable. Only one USB port but the tablet supports pxe boot. Do you think I could get mileage off of that if I set up a server on my other laptop and connected them via ethernet? I can flash the drives with dd and they show up when plugged in. I also tested that they can boot on my laptop which they can.

No, I just wanted a durable tablet and getacs computers were used by my local law enforcement agency.

I can’t speak to the boot order because ive always used the boot menu to select manually what I want to boot, to be cautious, but I have tried shifting it and that didn’t help.

Do you think that removing the ssd will help? I can’t see a way it will, but I might as well give it a shot because its my last chance really.

I cannot see grub at all.
