Unable to install solus

Ccalibur

Hi I want to install solus on my laptop that have an m.2 nvme ssd
In the live session my screen is Flickering and in the installer my disk doesn't show up on the usb that I have the iso on
I have fedora on my disk with btrfs

Ccalibur Do you mean the installer doesn't detect the drive at all?

I think your labtop new and Solus iso kernel old,
Solus team long time not update the iso.

This might be the reason why I downloaded the KDE Plasma ISO for the third time and, after burning it to USB, it refuses to boot on my computer. 😿

The MATE one worked fine. This was before I disabled "secure boot" on my system. I have a 10-year-old PC but should it matter? I'm sorry for posting in somebody else's thread and if it's off-topic but it had to be said.

You can create a Gparted iso to clean up the disk. Then installing Solus should be okay.

Sometimes it cannot figure out the drive layout.
When in Live before installing use Gparted to clean up the drive.

A 10-year old PC clearly isn't to new for our ISO (which came out last year). Did you follow our guide for preparing the installation medium?
