Hello everyone:

I have a new HP envy 17 laptop that came with windows 8. I tried booting up antix 13 and was unable. The disk boots fine in other laptops.
Grub did not come up. I set the bios settings to disable secure boot; enable legacy and nothing seems to work so far.

Any suggestions?

thanks.

Pedro

EDIT: Figured it out! I had to press escape key (even after I had changed device boot order) in order to pick cd/dvd so that it would not go straight to win8. Now antix13 (64 edition) booted up; ceni picked up wireless and everything is running great!

The Windows 8 and Uefi bios makes one over think stuff sometimes.
Good to hear from ya bro and nice to hear about the new gear also.
