Installing Linux Mint on Lenovo Ideapad with AMD GPU

This is so awesome.

Do you think if I follow these steps, I can install OpenSUSE Tumbleweed ?

And I was wanting to get a more powerful AMD laptop.

Any reason why an ACER Helios would not work ?

I managed to install Linux mint 19.1 in my Lenovo ideapad 330 AMD Ryzen 3 2200U. But I could not restart it in a compatibility mode. It does not restart as showed here, it freezes instead. And after 5-6 minutes prompts for log in and password. Could you please help me?

When Mint and Fedora won't install. Use Endless OS or Mageia 7 or later. I have a Lenovo Ideapad 320 IAP and those are the only ones with installers good enough to forgive an exotic and non-cooperative BIOS. For Mageia you must turn off secureboot.

It's so confusing

uEFI secure boot has been around for a while and works correctly. Do yourself a favor, and keep it enabled.

Very helpfull, i got my lenovo ideapad 530s up and running mint! Thank you!

Awsome and helpfull, thx sir

Thank you i lost 3 hours on this until i find your vidéo :)

Linux Mint Has Uefi Support

i have problem failed to load ldlinux.c32 .

Hey thank you so much for the post!
I had no idea about legacy booting. Every other linux Mint install videos kept recommending "UEFI" and I kept getting black screen.

Thank you for delivering me from Windows 10 purgatory

Damn, thanks for the video, it's really helpfull know how to configure and avoid bill gates tricks to avoid users leave win10 as the intelligence system it is (not intelligent, if you know what i mean). Right know i'm trying to install ubuntu, but having this error "the ejecution of "grub-install/dev/sda" failed. This is a fatal error" when installing and can't do anything about it, trying to configure as you did it and looking for whole internet to solve it.

Truly hard for the newbies like me found an error every corner installing linux, wish this had a easiest way in order to gain more users... and more freedom for all.

Regards friend.

i own lenovo v110 but was imposible install linux only windows

Well I have Lenevo G570 with AMD Radeo Graphics.

It doesn't supports linux at all... And I am pretty sure this won't work either

Edit:- Just now checked the BIOS in BOOT menu you can only change the boot order

And yeah I saw there was graphics mode in configuration menu. Which you can change to UMA graphics

Thanks not being able to boot without "Incompatible License" drove me mad.

i just spanked a lenova ideapad 114 by putting linux on it but also getting it to boot up and running and its not by doing what you say in the video i changed one setting in bios that was intel platform trust technology which i disabled in security everything is running touchpad wifi no problems what so ever

I know this is throwing a bottle to the ocean but do you think it would smooth sailling for a lenovo 320-15AST? I havent found anything

Hello, Will this work well on a s10 ideapad. Im currently running windows 7 ultimate.. laptop has fan issues and will switch off after running 30min into operation

Hello sir, your tutorial was Gold for a while because I finally could install Linux Mint. Everything went perfectly until the end of the installation, but after the reboot I entered my password and the screen went black. It turns on normally until I enter my password. My Lenovo Ideapad is 130 15 AST. Could you please give me some advise?

Nice video, it help me a lot to revive a lenovo
