Installing Debian 10 on a multiboot desktop system
by PaulExordium from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5C7X2)
The installation of "debian-10.7.0-amd64-DVD-1.iso" seemingly went fine. When restarting, the GRUB menu shows the additional entry, but launching it leads to a frozen booting process, see picture.
Ctrl+Alt+Del has no effect and the computer has to be powered off.
The two other operating systems (Windows 8 and Debian 9) can be rebooted normally.
What can I do to find out the cause of the problem, taking into account that this computer cannot connect to the internet?
Note also that, as live OS:
- these fail to boot:
debian-live-10.7.0-amd64-gnome.iso
debian-live-10.7.0-amd64-cinnamon.iso
- but these boot normally:
debian-live-10.7.0-amd64-gnome+nonfree.iso
KNOPPIX_V8.6.1-2019-10-14-EN.iso
slitaz-rolling-core64.iso
