Hello all, I’m trying to flash linux mint to a old thinkpad I’m refurbishing. However, when I go to flash the ISO to the USB, balena etcher throws the following error’s
[23381:0729/101159.717484:ERROR:gl_surface_presentation_helper.cc(260)] GetVSyncParametersIfAvailable() failed for 1 times! [23340:0729/101202.577845:ERROR:browser_main_loop.cc(280)] GLib-GObject: invalid cast from ‘GtkFileChooserNative’ to ‘GtkWidget’ [23340:0729/101205.337371:ERROR:browser_main_loop.cc(280)] GLib-GObject: …/gobject/gsignal.c:2777: instance ‘0x37b801188b20’ has no handler with id ‘5761’ [23381:0729/101205.693383:ERROR:gl_surface_presentation_helper.cc(260)] GetVSyncParametersIfAvailable() failed for 2 times!
I would like to note I’m flashing this ISO from my main computer running fedora, and I installed balena etcher from an RPM, (Already tried the app image, but it seems that FUSE is acting up).
Thank you in advance!
You could use dd like the others suggested or try Ventoy.
I see a lot of praise for Balena Etcher but regardless of what platform I’ve tried to use it on, I have always had issues.
Might give ventoy a try, looks promising.
