This is an open-source project, and I would welcome help in the areas that I am not as strong with as other people...

I had similar issues.? I did try the SSD image idea and had the same problem.? We just need something like a bootable Linux distro that will boot to some other laptops.? Mine isn't super old, but I guess it's older than I thought since I can't boot to HamPC either.

Still loving the HamPi and playing with the new Quadra version. I haven't hooked up a radio yet to check for the noise issue from the power supply yet.

I dont have a thumb drive or SD card large enough
so I thought to plop the image right onto a 120G SATA SSD drive
but whether I xzcat? and dd the image onto the drive
or if I blowup the xz and restore the image to the drive
I get the same "no bootable OS found" error
when looking at the drive after flashing I get the primary GPT image corrupt but backup is okay message in GParted
and I let it fix it, but no joy
I saw the doings using VirtualBox but I have no desire to go down that rabbit hole

any progress?
