Installed Linux for the fist time in Feb, I've now started saving ISO's

  • Ventoy for most, but some stuff doesn't work with correctly when booted from ventoy:

    • ChromeOS Flex won't install to internal drive when ventoy booted, it will when flashed directly to a usb.
    • also had Linux Mint 22 try to install to the ventoy drive (wiping it and then crashing halfway through)
    • and dealing with really old 32bit bios laptops you'll have to use direct usb too (AntiX still supports 32bit)

    • What are the silliest reasons people have given you for not wanting to try Linux?

  • "Never used Linux," They say, typing on a chromebook or android phone, before picking up their steamdeck.

    • Can we possibly do without apps on PCs ?

  • A Chromebook /chromeOS is mostly a PC without apps.

    • Can Linux save this tiny laptop from 2010

  • 1GB RAM is tough for a GUI and Firefox, maybe AntiX will work

    Really need a minimum of 2GB then you can run ChromeOS Flex, or Linux Mint XFCE
