[SOLVED] Unable to launch Live Ventoy w/MX-Linux on ASUS X570 MB w/AMD Ryzen 9 5900X - Plurix - 09-21-2021
Hi, unable to run MX-Linux with / without Persistence on an ASUS X570 Mobo.
I can see the menu but upon choosing the desired option it only shows a blank, dark screen forever.
I can Ctrl-Alt-Del to reboot, though.
Json file is:
Code:
{
"persistence" : [
{
"image": "/MX-19.1_x64.iso",
"backend": "/MX-19.1_x64.dat"
}
]
}Dat file created successfully using CreatePersistentImg.sh script:
Code:
sudo sh CreatePersistentImg.sh -s 24576 -l MX-Persistand located at root along with iso file.
USB stick is GPT formatted.
Any thoughts appreciated.

Can it boot ok if you don't have ventoy.json?

BTW, same behavior for the latest MX-19.4.1_kde_x64.iso, too.
See video below.
My guess is because of my CPU AMD Ryzen 9 5900x 12-core?...
Perhaps I should try MX-19.1_ahs_x64.iso and or MX-19.4.1_ahs_x64.iso?...
Will give it a try...

Hi All!
Just FYI: I updated the ACPI BIOS-UEFI from Revision 3602 (from early 2021 that came with the ASUS X570 MB to the newest 4021 from 8/10/2021 while the MX-19.4.1_ahs_x64.iso and MX-19.4.1_ahs_x64.dat in the stick and now it looks like it's working with and without Persistence.
The only problems are I get:
(1) "a required swap file size" setting I'm not sure about the syntax to enter it (For instance I tried 8 [for 8 GB], 80, 800 and 8000 [for 8000 KB] and it complained it was out of range or something like that), and...
(2) a "Non-Fatal Error Could not enable required root ! persistence (c = continue, p = power off, r = reboot)"
... which, I guess, are for a new post.
And, later on, I also will test ventoy for the original MX-19.1_x64.iso and corresponding MX-19.1_x64.dat to make sure it works just fine for persistence as well.

Hi again!
After updating my ASUS X570 MB BIOS_UEFI to the latest revision 4021 from 8/10/2021 I was able to boot Ventoy with the following ISO MX-Linux releases, all working just fine with/without Persistence:
MX-19.1_x64 ---> Goes to Command Line Install (cli-installer) on both w/wo Persistence.
MX-19.3_KDE_x64
MX-19.4.1_ahs_x64
MX-19.4.1_kde_x64
Also the errors messages referred in a previous post days ago "a required swap file size" and the "Non-Fatal Error" are gone since I've set the correct /, homefs and swap file sizes properly.
When I ordered the building of my PC-DT system months ago, I asked the seller to update the BIOS-UEFI fw in the process, as I learned in advance it has to be done prior to installing Linux on it.
When the system was ready to be delivered, I asked him if it was done, and he confirmed "Yes it was!"...
So I relied on his reply and didn't bother to double check it... Until I ran into trouble...
Lesson learned...
I think this is my final post and will stamp it as SOLVED momentarily...
