Could this be a device dependent problem? One of my installs on an old second hand laptop works fine with the newest Trisquel updates. (I don't have access to any other hardware right now) What kind of device are you using? Is it an X200, like bsharp1157? Does it have libreboot installed?

I didn't do anything. Apologies for the miscommunication. Based on > While the minimal iso image is handy, it isn't useful for installing on UEFI-based systems that you want to run in UEFI mode. The mini iso lacks the proper files for booting the computer in UEFI mode. Thus, the computer
