Such restrictions often evaporate over time.
Re: perfect chicken egg Alma Web site.
Hi, Larry, obviously you are not limited to using USB and DVD install media, you can "dd" the install image to an HDD or SSD, boot and install from that. Not sure about your Gigabyte BS problems. I use ASUS mobos exclusively because BIOS is BS free. K.O.

You may want to reply with your answer. Here also, you need to provide more details. What is your browser and which version? Which page (URL) says your browser is too old? Instead of asking Alma-related questions in the SL mailing list, it would be better to use their mailing list: https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__lists.almalinux.org_mailman3_lists_users.lists.almalinux.org_=DwIBaQ=gRgGjJ3BkIsb5y6s49QqsA=gd8BzeSQcySVxr0gDWSEbN-P-pgDXkdyCtaMqdCgPPdW1cyL5RIpaIYrCn8C5x2A=YQsat50UEMM-_DpAiazECl_hhAPj2VY14esp282AxdeuEC8dPuqfKxIcQ9-GeeBS=x1mEJlkGiZSOas23kYmF-KuE_8jggPGlrsArdOQAfhE= Hope this helps, Akemi
perfect chicken egg Alma Web site.
Planning to upgrade a number of WS's to Alma 8.5. I need to ask them a question but their web site says my brouser is too old. So I can't ask them a question about installing Alma 8.5 Since some developers monitor this web page. I was hoping to get a question answered by the back door. Problem: We have a number of GigaByte 970A DS3 Version 2 (black MB) The bios on these MB will not boot from a USB Flash. Most of the stuff on the internet is Noixe. I can load Alma 8.5 minimal but need the full version that will not fit on a DVD. I have it on a USB Flash but it will not boot. Is there there anyway to load alma 8.5 minimal and later update via the internet or ??? to the full 8.5 version. I have asked Gigabyte Support for a specific Bios update to remove the security BS. They are working on finding it ! I know the bios update version number but it does not exist anymore. I would be nice to be able to disable security to install a system and then turn it back on. I guess it too logical. Maybe I should consult Dilbert. Got two new Dilbert books for Christmas - there really a hoot. Reminds me of a place where I used to work. Happy New Year Larry Linder
