Installing SolydXK SolydK - Yet Another Installation Process 2019

Today we are going to install SolydK distribution into the harddrive. There were times when i dwelled into the command line interface from Debian minimal install to Linux-BBQ long time ago, before i sell my laptop and doing some office job task using Windows. And for now, i just want to feel all the bells and whistles from  -that-being-said- is a heavy desktop environtment. KDE.

As being written from previous post, my machine is a HP laptop with radeon graphic card and the-infamous realtek wifi. 

The preparation is always the same like before :


but, instead using unetbootin, this time i use rufus, a utility that helps format and create bootable USB flash drives, such as USB keys/pendrives, memory sticks, etc.

The flavors that i choose is SolydK Community Editions, Enthusiast's Edition (rolling) from https://solydxk.com/downloads/community-editions.  ....SolydK CE EE 😐
But why choosing this one? The EE version is one of the distro that can recognize my touchpad corectly during live session. (The stable version detect the left click as a right click, and the right click button as none).

Unlike the SolydX version that run live session smoothly, SolydK is stuck at boot upon booting into the media:

[  ok  ] Started raisenetwork interfaces.
[ ***] A start job is running for live-config contains the components that configure a live system during the boot process (late userspace). (..../no limit) .....and is taking your time forever 😐.

Because this one has nothing to do with graphic card, the "noveau.modeset=0" wont fix the problem.
..but, chenge the quiet splash with TimeoutStartSec=1min do a good job to bypass the start job.

 And all the steps just following the instructions.
Click the install icon at the desktop.

Select language.



Select timezone/region.



Select the keyboard layout


The name, user name, password and the host name.

The HDD Composition



We need a boot/uefi partition, a root partition, a swap partition, and an optional separate home partition mount point.





Be patient and enjoy the installation progress. It should take 15-30 minutes.














.....and enjoy your new system.
