Librem 11 Flashing help with a different OS

Hardware Librem 11
1

Hello,

Almost a year ago I came on here for help on installing Manjaro on my librem 11. This process involved flashing some kind of different bios from what I can recall and now my bios does not display the same options (in fact now it is just a black screen followed by manjaro booting).

Now I am interesting in trying to install Android x86 of FydeOS on it but I am having trouble trying to boot the install media. The following I have tried using a usb stick formatted with both of the aforementioned images flashed to it with the same result:

I hold ‘esc’ as the librem 11 powers up and get no options with the usb stick inserted. What happens after is that Manjaro just boots.

How do I get the usb to boot?

Thank you

I thought it might jog your memory in respect of

But OK. Which boot firmware are you using? Pureboot or Coreboot/BIOS?

How do I figure this out? It has been too long and I do not remember what was flashed.

PureBoot Basic.

If you don’t know and you can still boot normally then you could reflash the boot firmware so that you do know. That way you have a known starting point.
