Title: Clean install ubuntu16 Oryx Pro cannot boot
Post by: mahesh on Oct 28, 2023, 07:27 AM
I bought a new Oryx Pro 17 inch a few weeks ago and I did a clean install (wipe out whole disk) with a bootable USB that installs ubuntu16 created from Ubuntu's startup disk creator.

The installation is complete, I saw the message that asks me to remove installation media and press enter, I did and my machine does not boot. The screen shows nothing except the pinkish background colour (no text no nothing). The troubling thing is when I boot with my USB installation media and press F1/F7, it also doesn't boot. Desperate help needed please!!!!! I spend more than 2000USD on this thing and it doesn't boot now.

Extra info if needed: I use it for deep learning purposes. I installed Nvidia CUDA8.0 before. Just in case it may interfere with my boot up somehow.
