Title: Linux Lite EFI iso - 4.8 version
Post by: paulhoffusa on February 12, 2020, 04:22:43 PM

  My first post  :D 

  I see a 4.2 version is there a 4.8 version? If so then where?

  I'd be more then happy to test it because I saw in old post for version 4.2 no one had a EFI computer to test on and I do and it's very important to me to have EFI functionality for newer computers.

  Thank you for this distro :)

4.2 works just fine, don't worry. Then just update to 4.8 via Lite Upgrade.

I had had he exact same reaction. Apparently, people are installing the 4.2 test UEFI. Immediately do the system update (one of the menu items after 4.2 is installed and you boot into it). You end up at 4.8.

It took me a long time to get my head around that.
