Just read review of Linux Lite 2.6 http://www.everydaylinuxuser.com/2015/11...inux.html# by Everyday Linux User. Review was positive but he wrote, "Linux Lite does not yet have a version that works easily with UEFI based computers which in 2015 is a little bit disappointing, especially as it is based on Ubuntu which does have UEFI support."
As I previously posted, I don't really understand about UEFI but installed Linux Lite 2.6 on my recently purchased computer. http://www.freecinema2022.gq/forums/on-top.../#msg17173
I did have to call ASUS to get help changing BIOS to boot from DVD first. Never had that problem on my old computers then it LL 2.6 installed with no problems. The BIOS looks different so it must be UEFI. If I could not have installed LL, I would have wanted to return the computer. I do not want to change distros. Other users may give up and go to another distro. :'(
Can someone explain this UEFI stuff in plain English and why it is a problem for Linux Lite to have UEFI support when Ubuntu does?
Can it be put in 2.8 and new downloads of 2.6 isos?
