G’day,
I decided to put Linux Mint on my laptop without dual booting for a while first. I have come to the realisation that I still need Windows but am having a hard time getting an installation happening. I downloaded the official Windows 11 .iso and created a bootable flash drive in Mint. It works but stops when it asks for drivers. Is this a laptop thing or an Acer thing?
I recently had this exact issue when creating a bootable USB from the windows .iso under Linux mint.
The only fix was to use a windows PC and the windows media creation tool to create the USB drive.
