I'm really struggling to get @netbsd installed on my ThinkPad T14 laptop. I can't get the install to even start. I've included a photo of what I'm seeing right after I start the install. I know that I'm doing something wrong, but just can't figure out what that might be. So, NetBSD is a bit different than Linux, huh? 😂
Thanks for any help you can give. I didn't seem this issue when installing on the desktop.
Thanks for all the replies with help. I really do appreciate it.
Unfortunately, everything that I've tried, I just can't get the install to proceed. I've tried the .img download, the DVD ISO, I've checked the SHA512, and no luck. I'll try again in a few days.
Thank you, @nina_kali_nina! You were right. I was writing to /dev/sdd1 instead of /dev/sdd. I just started the install on the laptop. ✊
@chadmccullough @netbsd if you wrote the stick with dd, make sure that it was written to the device (e.g. sdb) and not partition (e.g. sdb1). I've had this by accident on one of these days when brain is tired
@nina_kali_nina Thanks! I've not tried this. 👍 @netbsd
@nina_kali_nina That was it. Thank you!!!
@nina_kali_nina @chadmccullough @netbsd oh I used dd and couldn't get it to boot. I'll have to check that. Thanks!
@chadmccullough yaaay! Fingers crossed things will go smoothly from there!
@nina_kali_nina Thanks again!!!
