Try to install Fedora 43 everything goes perfectly installation finished without any problems. Restart and bam I'm in my bios. Restart thinking it'a fluke, bam back to bios. Try again with a different setup USB bam bios... Ask around try what people are saying bam back to bios... This happened to me on old MSI laptop from 2015 and the new Asus from 2024... I'm beginning to think Fedora is allergic to me.
That's a weird-un. I moved to Fedora specifically because I wanted a no-nonsense distro, and for the last 7 years it's delivered on various desk- and laptops, knock-on-wood.
Yeah it's very weird, but that's my luck. Weird problems finds me. I'm happy with my cachyOS setup so, can't complain much.
It's probably a bootloader issue. Either grub got misconfigured, or uegi/msdos shenanigans.
Tried almost everything about it. Nothing worked. I spend a good amount of time to solve it. Fun fact Nobara was also doing the same bios trick. I asked around their discord as well and they couldn't help me either.
This sounds very odd. I have tinkered with countless of systems (since 15+ years), I never had an unresolved issue with installing a distro. What is usually the issue? It installs fine by doesn't boot? Do you make it till the grub menu?
Yes it's odd and people whom I talked to told me they also hear about it first time. I download the iso verify put it on the USB, boot into USB setup comes no problems partition or other wise no error, no messages. Everything install normally. There is no grub nothing, restart the laptop and boot directly into bios.
It sounds like bios shenanigans, secure boot or Legacy mode enabled or so. If grub doesn't show up, I would try to go into bios, and override the boot choice to see it would work. Disable legacy and make sure the compatibility. But indeed, sounds very niche.
I've been there done that. Tried all the bios settings. Nothing worked.
