Hi beeztem.

Try to disable ACPI option and enable Virtualization or Virtual option in BIOS.
Use acpi=off cheat code in /mnt/partition_with_Porteus/boot/syslinux/porteus.cfg

Example in the LABEL GRAPHICAL section

Code: Select all

APPEND initrd=initrd.xz changes=/porteus acpi=off
Linux 6.6.11-porteus #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Sun Jan 14 12:07:37 MSK 2024 x86_64 Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E3-1270 v6 @ 3.80GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux

What is model of your PC (motherboard, cpu and etc) or laptop?
BTW, try again to install Porteus.

I have reinstalled it 3 times, no change.

P.S. I was using Kali Linux alongside Windows for a year, just wanted a more "useful" O.S. for once.

Kinda hard... I made the "change" I didn't want Kali so I mighta gotten rid of zed data... Therefore Porteus is on the old Kali usb.

But... I have found it: https://www.amazon.co.uk/HP-CQ58-256SA- ... B008X2I8CY but with windows 10.

beeztem, in BIOS of your laptop you will need to DISABLE "Secure Boot" and ENABLE "Legacy Support" in the "BIOS Secure Boot configuration" on the settings page similar to what is shown below, before you can attempt to install Porteus.

Press "F10" and click "YES" to "Exit Saving Changes".
Tap "F9" or "ESC" and then "F9" when prompted.
Highlight the Porteus boot source you are using and press "ENTER".
