I'm trying to install spiral Linux but system hang up at GPU driver level. My device has not option to switch between Intel i915 and NVIDIA GT218M [ION 2]. Linux Mint Debian Edition 6 and Ubuntu 22.04 can work but Spiral Linux. I prefer Spiral Linux to install. Is it possible? Thanks.

Hi there, please try booting the SpiralLinux live system with both kernels (6.5 and 6.1 are both included).

During the login process I opened options with tab and selected vmlinuz and initrd files. Both 6.1 and 6.5 failed respectively. The failsafe option also fails. I guess I will not be able to run Spiral Linux on this device. Are there any other options I can try? Thank you.

Hi there, it's hard to know without details about the error or what isn't working.

I installed LMDE 6. Solved.
