Re: A challenge with installing AV Linux
So in the end I chose the main drive and went with ESP option....The screen has gone blank but my USB stick is working. It's taking some time...No progress screen or anything. I will give it an hour before attempting anything.

Re: A challenge with installing AV Linux
My 2yr old daughter unplugged the power supply from the laptop so the battery ran out...Started the whole thing again...Just selected the blank option for all partitions in the 'use for' column and chose the hard drive (not the live USB) and it works!
When I switch the computer on, I get some kind of choice between 2 options but there are only a few seconds before it boots into avlinux..Don't know if this is normal..I mean there is no slick pulsating logo or anything but that's ok...Seems to work. Great, now I'll try it all out. Thanks!

Stay around for a while, shoot the breeze and show off your music. Before you know it, somebody will show up pulling their hair out desperately trying to get something to work, and you'll realize that you know the answer.

Re: A challenge with installing AV Linux
Well I did do like a comedy song about switching to Linux. Please be aware that my mixing skills have come a long way since I did this:
