Neon drive key
Well, I am glad I didn't end up with a blank screen, that was a great relief for me really. So far all went well.įinally, after the installation is over and restarted my computer, just before the computer restarted I was instructed on the screen to remove my installation media and then press, which I did, and the computer successfully restarted and I then logged in into my new KDE Plasma Desktop, I had to enter my username and password which I created during the installation process. Then, once I am on the KDE Plasma Desktop, I saw one single available icon on the desktop, somewhere on the left top area of my screen, now I can't remember precisely the given title of that particular desktop icon, but I do remember it contained the word "Install", so by single-clicking on it (I am used to double-clicking with my mouse, but it turned out I only needed to do a single click), this brought up a wizard like dialog window which guided me through the installation process.
#NEON DRIVE KEY UPDATE#
I am now back with a followup update (adding it here below my previous post above).įollowing the same steps as planned earlier, that is copying the downloaded ISO file (KDE Neon User Edition ISO file) to a USB Pen-Drive using "Etcher", and then booting my computer using this USB Pen-Drive. I'll catch up with you folks in a little bit. Thanks once again Ongenae, and thank you Acrux for your feedback.

#NEON DRIVE KEY INSTALL#
If all goes well, then I would like to attempt to install the new KDE Neon over my current "ZorinOS" partition.įingers crossed, I shall begin my attempts and will come back later on to share my findings. So, my plan is to first use "Balena-Etcher" to copy/burn the ISO on my USB Pen, then attempt to boot my machine using UEFI secure boot option (currently those are the boot settings configured on my computer's BIOS).
#NEON DRIVE KEY WINDOWS 10#
That is Windows 10 installed on my SSD drive, and ZorinOS (Linux Distro based on Ubuntu 18.04) installed on partition on my internal HDD drive. So I really feel this is going to be an interesting experiment, later one we can both compare our findings.Ĭurrently I am running two operating systems on my laptop, dual boot options. įrankly, I have also downloaded Balena-Etcher, to burn the ISO on my USB Pen-Drive. I am having an NVidia Graphics Card on my laptop too (NVidia GPU), so I am a bit hesitate now about trying out the KDE Neon, however I decided to give it a go and then come back here and update you with my findings too (I wonder if I would end up with a blank screen or whether I would succeed reaching the Plasma Desktop, I think either way it would be a great adventure).

I decided to read through the community forum first, before stepping on further with the installation, that is how I found your post on here. I have just finished downloading the KDE Neon ISO from the same URL which you have mentioned in your post ( ), and me too am about to try out the User Edition.

I am so curious to find out if you ever managed to get the blank screen to go away after the fresh installation?
