"Press any button to continue"
Hello, i discovered about v4 update and tried to boot it, but it refused to boot from Ventoy(latest version) and threw an error "Press any button to continue"(video attached)
My Asus VivoBook specs:
Ryzen 7 4700U
16 GB of on-board soldered RAM
512 GB of NVMe SSD
integrated GPU
I couldn't find anything about this issue in internet, its first time something like that happening to me

which mirror did you download from?
when did you download it?
there have been some issues booting with the launch v4 iso
https://blendos.co/download/ try downloading from the master build server, the otus mirror or the asterisk mirror
Download - blendOS
Download blendOS
main one
When was this?
yesterday
re-download it
from the gitlab
ok
ok, i re-downloaded it from master build server and im still cannot boot it
same error
try another usb and etcher?
Ventoy might just be messing with the iso
oh, i hate etcher, ive got my files on other partitions of that flash drive
it doesn't always work
you can also use
dd
or Rufus in dd mode if your pc is running windowsi dont think so, every single distro i have tried booted perfectly
I said another flash drive
this is a different distro
Manjaro for example never worked over Ventoy for me
install would die
i have only one
back when I actually used that piece of shit
hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
I mean you could get more
it's not like there's a helpful error message or logs or anything
idk what's going on
it display something for like a few milliseconds
like "error: blah blah blah"
how helpful
I see it
but I can't read it
too fast
yeah
ill try to get it
hmm?
oookkaaaay
very weird
@karas ~ $ _, you've gained the level
1idk if that's from ventoy or the iso
you may very well need to try etcher or
ddiso boots perfectly in vmware
have you checked if ventoy itself is ok
up to date
ive flashed it today in the morning
it boots everything perfectly
damn ill try flashing it with etcher on my flash drive
there is something with ventoy, the same image booted using etcher
wait lol
it just failed all the commands and said "successful installation"
successful very
something is very wrong
you chose don't format
why did you do that
because why format new partitions
Because
ok so i formatted these partitions in installer and it was installing but apparently electricity cut off so installation did not succeed
Solution
need to use etcher instead of ventoy
Ouch
