Install fails on Dell Latitude

Dave Milne over 7 years ago

Dell Latitude - installs without error, murders Beethoven's Furry Liz, I remove disk and reboot.

Message comes up:

FIRMWARE LOADER (press <enter> to display list of images)

I press enter and have two choices:

0 SP Loader

1 * 16_05_2160

Select (0,1,2)

The more observant amongst you might wonder why you can select '2' when it isn't listed, but that's irrelevant. The only key on my keyboard that works is the Enter key, which comes up with the same message again.... I cannot select either 0 or 1. You also wonder who couldn't be bothered to type a few more letters to try to make the selection a little bit more obvious, but let's not go there ..

Tried with USB keyboard, which it recognises. Again, only the Enter key works.

Reinstalled (which reformats the partitions), and same behaviour.

Should have said this was Sophos XG Home Edition - apologies.

Ok, think I'm outta here as link below says can't use Sophos XG as a client to an OpenVPN server, which is one of my core requirements.

To all that looked at this post, many thanks, even if you couldn't help.

Hopefully Sophos will support this (and have a better installer) in the future, so I will check back !

Regards,

Dave
