Hi,

On Saturday, I was working on a Viglen Genie computer with Windows 7 on. So
I booted dban and wiped the SSD, booted memtest86+ and verified the RAM was
OK.

Then I installed Ubuntu 22.04.1 on it. No problem.

So I decided to install Saturday's 22.10 daily spin. It installed fine.
Then I rebooted and the system suddenly seemed to have lost its SSD drive.
Cue panic.

So I wandered around the BIOS setup program and ended up at the "Boot"
submenu. The entry for "Boot mode select" was set to "LEGACY" so I looked
at it, found out that it could also be set to "UEFI". I set the system for
"UEFI" and the computer started booting again. Has something changed?

TIA,


Ian
