I mean they just arrested the lead Telegram dev and keep talking about trying to ban all encryption

Not OP but if you have experience with it, how does LMDE stand up to a normal mint install for stability? An Ubuntu-less release seems super cool

Yeah, GParted to create the MBR partition table and then let the installer manage the actual partitioning for you. It’s helped me in the past to physically disconnect drives I don’t want to accidentally overwrite, but that’s more of a “I don’t want to make a mistake” problem then issues with the installer

I’ve never had any issues with the mint live environment, but trying XFCE might be helpful. I would also try booting the computer and waiting until it stops reading from the dvd before doing anything. The live systems gets copied off the dvd, and I can see there being problems if you’re doing things that need data that hasn’t been copied into memory yet.

It’s also possible your memory could be starting to go. Is the windows installation stable? Some linux installers have a built in option to run a memory test (and some bioses as well) but I can’t remember if Mint does. Memtest86+ is a standalone memory testing program can be flashed to a usb drive or burned to a disk.

As [email protected] (On mobile, I think that’s the right person) mentioned, are all the hard drives internal? Do they show up in BIOS? The Mint installer should be able to see them. Before trying to setup all the partitions in GParted, I would try creating a new MBR partition table on the drive you want to use, saving, and rerunning the installer.

You can still change both order from bios, but most linux boot managers give you the option of booting to a list of operating systems and then choosing the default after a certain number of seconds.

My Jellyfin server currently downs support decode for modern formats, so I’m actively avoiding them and it’s getting considerably more difficult

I heard somewhere that the updated ignored staging settings set. So even if companies had it set to only roll out to a subset of their computers it went everywhere

It looks like there isn’t a vulnerability at all. Just a malware executable disguised as a pdf in a zip file that uses discord as a communication method

About $15.19 USD

Pretty sure the way Adobe’s licensing works you need to be always online to use it
