I installed bluefin OS on my personal laptop and I quite liked, decided to install it on my work desktop as well (where I had Fedora 41 previously). Installation was going fine until near the end it failed with an error failed to run /usr/sbin/grub2-install --target i386pc because the BIOS was incompatible.
I did check the ASUS website (motherboard is PRIME B450-K) and there are updates for my BIOS I haven’t installed, so I am going to try that next but would appreciate any additional advice. It is mentioned on the installation guide that you should install the most recent BIOS before attempting, but I got ahead of myself because I got zero issues on the laptop (which is from 2022 and it has the most recent BIOS update).
So I updated the BIOS and booted using a new ISO because the old one may have been corrupted. This time, instead of starting in the Live Environment, it immediately started into the Anaconda installer. So I just started the installation, which happened much faster this time, and everything went perfectly. I had a working system within the hour. It’s really much easier than Fedora to set up, especially due to the DX mode. Not sure what part went wrong last time, but it’s all good now!
