cant boot without nomemset
No matter what I try to run, (live or otherwise) system freezes on boot at some point. I was trying ubuntu plain, and a post somewhere with a similar problem said mate worked for them, so I’ve been trying this version… but so far to no avail.
Seems to me an issue with the intel drivers, (hardware) and maybe the only fix is to drop a video card in there. But i thought I’d try here to see if anyone has some new ideas, I tried everything I could find on the web.
