What video card are you using? Sorry if I missed it. I put my hardware in my signature as well so you can compare. Don't know if I had a bad burn or what, but the live system booted and installed great from the USB key. The system locked up trying to boot a Live DVD. I installed from a USB key and it went without a hitch. Does your board work Ok with LM13 or LMDE?

Unfortunately my attempts at installing Linux and grub2 have failed so far, possibly because of hardware problems.īy the way, since you have an Asus Sabertooth X79 board (the same I have), how did you manage to install Linux Mint? I'm having problems with this hardware and like to eliminate hardware-related problems. I installed it and it automatically detects UEFI boot systems. Powerhouse wrote:Yeah, rEFInd really is nice. Mount ALL your /, /boot, and /boot/efi partitions, for example (change where needed): My opinion is that it shouldn't have been packaged as standard with Linux (most distributions, not only LM). What a PITA !!! My experiences with grub2 have also been everything but good. I deleted nf and refind_圆4.efi from the /boot/efi/EFI directory and tried again, but got the same result.Īny help would be greatly appreciated. This entry is NOT being modified, and no new entry is being created.

I just upgraded my system to a UEFI-based Asus Sabertooth X79 board with an i7-3820 chip. This combination of factors has motivated me to create a significantly modified version, which I've now released as rEFInd: Unfortunately, rEFIt hasn't been updated for two years, its original author has stopped responding to queries, and the program has a number of bugs and limitations, especially on UEFI PCs.

In my tests (on five systems), this combination has been more reliable than any other Linux EFI boot loader, although ELILO and GRUB Legacy both come close.Īnyhow, feel free to check it out and post back or e-mail me with your comments! You can boot such a kernel directly with rEFInd, without relying on another boot loader.

When booting Linux, rEFInd relies on another Linux-capable boot loader, such as ELILO or GRUB however, developments in the 3.3 kernel series will enable the kernel to boot as an EFI application, which will eliminate this need.
