@aeva Fedora documentation still mentions booting live media in BIOS mode for a BIOS installation. https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/creating-and-using-a-live-installation-image/
To clarify, is the GRUB menu you see from the USB drive or the internal drive? If it gets to the GRUB menu of the USB drive and fails to boot from that point, I have no idea. If it's not booting GRUB from the USB drive, there might be something in the firmware settings to get it to boot.
@be the usb one

@be someone else suggested that fedora might have dropped support for x86_64v1

@aeva That would explain booting the USB drive's GRUB then failing to load the kernel.

@be I'm gonna try debian testing next and see whether it's gonna be debian testing my game or debian testing my patience

ok so I got this old core 2 duo machine, you know, a modern x64 intel computer. the Fedora 43 live usb doesn't boot on it, grub says something has a bad sector. but the same live usb works just fine on another computer, and i reimaged the usb drive just in case and it's still misbehaving. I don't think I'm gonna get this working, but I would be interested to know if Fedora dropped backwards compat with non-uefi systems or something like that
@aeva
Just yesterday i installed fedora 43 on a pentium dual core with bios/mbr and worked fine. -

@GyrosGeier I looked it up and I think you might be right
@GyrosGeier debian testing live iso just says "os error" or something like that when I tried to boot it

@aeva oh wow.
The next thing I'd try is probably GRML (which has the big advantage that if it doesn't boot, the developers want to fix it).
Might also be that the UEFI interface is not fully compliant, that machine is probably from a time when vendors were still learning.

@aeva it could require a 32bit UEFI boot loader. I have that on an old Mac mini with a Core 2 Duo

I'm also fantasizing about making my own live USB distro for mollytime, so if anyone knows anything about how to make a custom live linux distro, 🤙

@aeva it has instructions all the way to installing steam :3

@GyrosGeier I don't think this machine has a "uefi"

@pupxel I'll keep that in my back pocket for the next time I feel like I have too much free time 😅

@aeva if you want to take the shorter route and modify an existing distro, everyone should have instructions for that, ubuntu's at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DerivativeDistroHowto

@accela alternatively, how does one do that

@GyrosGeier do you think a CD installer work or would that be basically the same problem again? is that still a thing?
-
@GyrosGeier I don't think this machine has a "uefi"
@GyrosGeier I just checked, the options are @efi, non-efi, and "auto"

(parte 3, ultima) arrivai qui cancellando i social classici, trovai un luogo di pace. Abbiamo la capacità di rovinare qualsiasi cosa sulla quale mettiamo le mani, e più siamo più sporchiamo.
Fate pace con voi stessi, che forse è meglio!
Avete bisogno di aggredirmi leggendo tutto ciò? Fate pure, io conosco il mio valore e so che le cose andranno solo a peggiorare nel mondo. Non voglio farne parte.

Finché questi numeri non saranno al centro del dibattito politico, difficile che l'affluenza cresca.

@eniko @cuddle_puddle I was going to ask the same thing: how “finite” would the terrain be and how much storage is required for the whole world? Hundreds of megabytes? Several gigabytes?
