[SOLVED] Installing Bunsenlabs questions

I want to install Bunsenlabs on my laptop.
Hardware: Intel Core I5 4500M CPU
2500 Ghz
8 Gig memory
x-64 processor.

That means that the AMD-64 download is not an option for me, right?
But is the hybrid one an option for me to install on his laptop?

Re: [SOLVED] Installing Bunsenlabs questions

The amd64 iso is fine for Intel 64bit CPUs. "amd" in the name is just a historical legacy.

Re: [SOLVED] Installing Bunsenlabs questions

I installed BunsenLabs on a USB-stick with unetbootin. Then I went to the BIOS of the Windows 10 OS.
I selected Advanced.
Under Bootmode:
- Legacy
- UEFI Hybrid
- UEFI Native
I selected Legacy.
Then I changed the boot order like thus:
- USB Hard drive
- USB CD-rom
- USB Floppy

So far no results. What am I doing wrong here?

Re: [SOLVED] Installing Bunsenlabs questions

I installed BunsenLabs on a USB-stick with unetbootin.

I Wold not say that you "installed" the BunsenLab iso to an usb-stick. You "wrote" it to the stick.
The recomended way to use on an Windows pc, is to use https://sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager

Then I went to the BIOS of the Windows 10 OS.

Bios is not part of your OS! Se https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BIOS, But, you can have BIOS, component integration and support in the OS,

I selected Advanced.
Under Bootmode:
- Legacy
- UEFI Hybrid
- UEFI Native
I selected Legacy.
Then I changed the boot order like thus:
- USB Hard drive
- USB CD-rom
- USB Floppy

So far no results. What am I doing wrong here?

What is tne "No result"? You can not boot from usb-stick?

What is your Brand/Model? Maybe that information could make it easier to guide you...

Re: [SOLVED] Installing Bunsenlabs questions

The brand and model is: HP ProBook 650 G1
No result means is that I tried to boot the computer with the USB plugged in, and then .... the computer started booting up Windows 10.
I know a big deal of software, but I am not good at dealing with the hardware side of computers.
Thank you for your replies. I appreciate it.

Re: [SOLVED] Installing Bunsenlabs questions

Well, it worked.
I removed the old files from the USB stick and used the Ubuntu program usb-creator-gtk. It creates a LIVE disk (capital letters intended).
This did the trick.
I installed Bunsenlabs and already have done bl-welcome.
I will introduce myself later.
Thank you for your answers.

Re: [SOLVED] Installing Bunsenlabs questions

Lesson learned here: Never use unetbootin to create BL bootable images on USB stick :^)

@manyroads' post is quite insightful.
