As the title says, my bootable usb is not showing up in the boot menu for my ThinkPad e14 AMD ryzen 5 7530u , gen 5 I think. I have disabled secure boot in the uefi and disabled fast startup in windows. Am I missing anything ? Note: this is my first time using a uefi bios so I don’t know if there are any other kinks to mess with .
Edit : I contacted lenovo support for the above issue but even they couldn’t find the answer so I guess won’t be using linux for this laptop. But since it’s for uni I guess it’s fine. I will just use WSL
Edit 2: Reinstalled the bios , the usb boots now . Finally slapped opensuse on it and now running it
That’s something you’ll have to Google, but there should be a tool in Windows (you might have to install it from OEM website if you’ve reinstalled to debloat).
Tried that as well but that as well uses usb boot so that is also net detecting
What about this process: https://pcsupport.lenovo.com/us/en/products/laptops-and-netbooks/thinkpad-t-series-laptops/thinkpad-t14-type-20s0-20s1/20s0/solutions/ht500008-how-to-update-system-bios-windows#Update
See “Updating the BIOS from Windows”. It’s not your exact model, but the process should be the se.
