Borked brand new laptop

[DoYouKubuntu]

Just to note to some here, I noted the UEFI menu was similar to my new KFOCUS M1 I got a while back. One thing I noted when trying to make a Gparted boot device, I could not simply dd the ISO. The image it created on the drive was not "viewable" by that UEFI system. At least here anyways.

What I finally found by Google means was I had to get a thumb drive that I could format as FAT32 and then copy the mounted ISO image files over. Once I did that, it was recognized by that UEFI system as bootable.

I did that as I didn't like how KFocus has the main boot drive formatted for what I intended to do. So... anyway, just FYI from here to maybe help others.

That's good to know. Thanks for sharing.
