Hello, not much of a Linux user (situations like this are why)…but long story short, I’m trying to rehab a ROG PC from 2018.
I made a bootable USB of the current Mint distro, but booting leads to a black screen. I tried compatibility mode, but the boot process hangs on “EFI stub: Measured initrd data into PCR 9”
The PC came with an Nvidia 2080, but it’s actually a 980ti. Also there isn’t integrated graphics here. Any troubleshooting advice would be cool
Update: if I select recovery mode then ‘resume normal boot’, Mint 21 works. However, this computer will be a gift to a tech-illiterate person, so that level of input will not suffice. I installed the recommended (and correct) Nvidia driver, but the results are the same
‘nomodeset’ didn’t so anything for me. At the request of another user, I successfully got into system rescues desktop environment
