Lots of searching on Google brings no relief. It appears that a 32 bit EFI is needed even if installing a 64 bit OS.
If this system has 32 bit firmware, this is not supported currently. There was discussion not so long ago, and there is feature request. You may try to manually add 32 bit bootloader to USB stick, this should at least enable you to boot installation medium.
Yup. Looks like the issue is that the X205T has 32-bit EFI. http://askubuntu.com/questions/560741/creating-a-boot-disc-and-installing-ub...
And that also means you do not use legacy BIOS. Are you sure you "disabled" UEFI?--
Yeah, there are two rabbit holes here unfortunately, and Ken has to pick which one to go down. 1a. Start at the above URL to get a 32-bit GRUB EFI OSLoader built, an grafted onto probably USB stick #1, and use Rawrite32 to create USB stick #2. The firmware should find the OSLoader on stick #1, and once grub is loaded, it'll see stick 2, then use the GRUB "configfile" command to point to USB stick #2's grub.cfg. OR 1b. To figure out how to create a single USB stick with 32-bit GRUB and openSUSE install files. Seems tricky to me. 2. use Rawrite32 to built a new stick. Try setting the firmware again to disable UEFI. And see if this stick will boot. In other words, I would use a currently maintained ISO to USB stick writer. But before all that, is this going to be dual booted or will it be only Linux? That the computer has a 32-bit EFI, I'm willing to bet Windows only supports it with the CSM enabled, in which case I'd keep doing whatever Windows supports if dual booting. Mixing and matching CSM enabled/disabled for different OS's in multiboot configuration is a PITA. -- Chris Murphy -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
