Installing Linux Lite / Re: Notebook looks like its formatted

@kayronnBR
In the LL ISO - Live Environment still mounted? The USB/DVD you created - if so shut down and remove it (after fully installed) the Live Environment is not persistent by default and will revert at boot.

Installing Linux Lite / Re: Notebook looks like its formatted

« Last post by stevef on Today at 01:07:51 AM »

I installed the linux lite ISO on my notebook since my HD had a problem

Did you re-use the HD with the problem for the linux lite install ?
If you re-used the disk, can you tell us

What OS was on it before it had a problem?
What was the problem with the HD ?

but every time I turn off my notebook it looks like I had formatted it, like using it for the first time.

Did the LL installation appear to be ok ?
Can you tell us what you see when you re-boot after the install ?

If the HD really looks like it has been formatted that would mean the BIOS is saying something like 'please install a bootable OS'.

Updates / Re: Installing updates error - PPA

The go-for-it PPA you are using doesn't (currently) have a release compatible with the version of Linux Lite you are using (jammy based).  This error is stopping the update process from running.  To allow the update to run, you need to remove the PPA from the software list.  See the manual at the link below for information about how to check if a PPA has a suitable release and how to remove one that is causing a problem.

I've moved the topic to updates.

The transmissionbt PPA you are using doesn't (currently) have a release compatible with the version of Linux Lite you are using (jammy based).  This error is stopping the update process from running.  To allow the update to run, you need to remove the PPA from the software list.  See the manual at the link below for information about how to check if a PPA has a suitable release and how to remove one that is causing a problem.
