As the title says, my bootable usb is not showing up in the boot menu for my ThinkPad e14 AMD ryzen 5 7530u , gen 5 I think. I have disabled secure boot in the uefi and disabled fast startup in windows. Am I missing anything ? Note: this is my first time using a uefi bios so I don’t know if there are any other kinks to mess with .
Edit : I contacted lenovo support for the above issue but even they couldn’t find the answer so I guess won’t be using linux for this laptop. But since it’s for uni I guess it’s fine. I will just use WSL
Edit 2: Reinstalled the bios , the usb boots now . Finally slapped opensuse on it and now running it
Could you record a video showing the steps you take to try to boot the USB?
Also, maybe pictures of any BIOS settings. I want to see if I can replicate the problem on my laptop.
On ‘Startup’ section, what options are available for ‘Boot Mode’ ? May want to try using something other than Quick during OS install. Should be able to change it back afterwards for faster boots.
Tried that as well no luck
Can you try Boot mode on anything other than “quick”, and then F12 during boot see if that works?
The only other option is diagnostics that also doesnt work
I’m sorry you’re going through that bud. I’m flat out of tricks.
Same I have already given up on it as well
