Correct me if I am wrong, but it appears that @Brian_Francisco was unlucky to pull an install that did not correctly write to bios to point to the install disk that was selected for Clear Linux install. Then @Aqua1ung suggested going to a known working iso albeit old, and was able to install then update that install to the latest Clear Linux release. Something appears very wrong/incompatible with the Clear Linux installer. Looking at the last message on @Brian_Francisco picture of his boot screen, it was referring to a Bluetooth device.
I didnāt boot in grub2 mode. Had a brain fart. Downloading 37860 again. Deleted the previous one when it blew up. Is it possible to update from the newest iso file instead of downloading updates from the server? Like opensuse does?
Maybe, but I donāt know how to do that. At any rate, make sure you disable autoupdate when installing 37860: itās very important you do that, otherwise itāll surreptitiously update to the latest, and you wonāt be able to boot.
I donāt know how you installed without network, but, like I said, you should have disabled automatic updates during the initial ISO installation, i.e. as an installation parameter. Anyway, glad it worked out. Now you can safely do a manual update, or enable automatic updates if you are so inclined.
I didnāt log in to my Wi-Fi, and I didnāt pick anything in the advanced tab.
I try to see what the distro will do that has auto-updates installed, especially since Iām only testing right now. I donāt game so I try to stay away from Nvidia @ all costs.
I donāt setup auto updates on my daily drivers ever. Thatās asking for trouble on most rolling distros.
My next attempt is putting something on my white iMac.
