Linux lite 6.0 doesn't work on asus x205ta
#1
Hi everyone, I have an Asus X205TA and I wanted to install on it Linux Lite 6.0. I had successfully installed Linux Lite 5.8 on this hardware and it worked, but It Is based on a too old version of ubuntu (20.04lts) and I need a newer version (minimum 22.04lts) because I need libwebkit2gtk-4.1-0. however I completed the installation of Linux lite 6.0 and the installation program showed me "restart now the system" and I clicked on the button, but when my Asus restarted, on the screen was showed UEFI Firmware. After that I selected the boot menu and there were two Ubuntu partitions. The problem was that none of those partitions worked and OS didn't start.
Can someone help me.
P.S. Sorry for my english, I'm not so good with the language.

No problem, if anything is not clear to you please ask for explanation.

We will try, but will need more information.
First, did you make a backup of the working 5.8 system before trying the 6.0 installation ?
If you have a viable backup, reverting to the original setup may be possible.

Is the installation intended to be dual boot with 6.0 alongside 5.8 or is there another OS ?

During the 6.0 installation at the Installation Type screen which of these did you choose ?
'Erase disk and Install', 'Install Alongside...' or 'Something Else'

If you can boot from a Live media e.g. the Linux Lite 6.0 USB, please boot it. Open a terminal by pressing 'Ctrl', 'Alt' and 'T' together.
In the terminal window, type in these commands
Code:
lsblk
Code:
sudo fdisk -l
Code:
sudo parted -l
They will display some information about your disk set up.  Please copy and paste the results from the terminal into a text file (use another USB drive).
Paste the information back into this thread.
