Elitedesk 705 mini ryzen 5 / vega

Hallos,
Was unable to boot the imaged usb stick on this ryzen 5 /vega minipc.
Dont think it can open a viable video mode for the system. Batocera and
win 11 run flaweless onit so its a COS thing.

Did you try failsafe mode in the initial bootloader options screen?

No matter what i do with it, it is not showing me any screen at all just a blinking cursor.
Now i got lil further its telling me it failed to start Lightdm. service. In all fairness MX-Linux
doesn't boot on that machine from a usb stick either. Maybe its a bios thing not sure still
investigating.

I'm reaching back into memory here, but on my old 5/vega system, to get a couple of different versions of Linux to be happy, I had to make absolutely sure Secure Boot was disabled, Legacy (and not UEFI) USB was enabled, and I had to add "acpi=off" I believe it was to the boot options for the display and wi-fi to work properly. Something about the advance power management on some of the Ryzen5 systems just did not play nice with the Kernel.

Might give that a shot in the dark anyway!
