Comment 7 for bug 1309395

Ubuntu 20.04 installed on that same model without issue. Admittedly, this is a rescued machine that had a coffee accident. The original 640 GB HD got reformatted first, and Ubuntu installed from the CD Drive. That may make a difference whether or not the install media boots correctly. Now that I'm thinking of putting Chrome OS Flex on the darn thing, I have to disable UEFI safe boot, and so on.

Thanks for the discourse on your issue. It will help me decide what I want to do besides F@H on that old workhorse.
