Hi,
I have just installed Tumbleweed on an external SATA SSD. When I start the computer with F2, Tumbleweed doesn’t show. I’m using different distros and I have noticed that some distros show in the BIOS but others don’t and I don’t understand why.
I suspect that the problem could be with settings in my BIOS but I don’t know what to change.
Your help is appreciated.
Here’s my QSI:
