Would like to install linux on my T4 Mini

pwilson · 发表于 2022-07-29 04:50:09

I have attempted to use F7, F1, and F10 to get to a boot/bios menu and my unit will not boot and keeps on booting to Windows. Is there a update I need to apply? I can't even set HW features.
Any ideas for me?

Hello there,
Could you please send us a picture of SN on the bottom of the PC ?

Hi, Iḿ considering purchasing a Beelink T4, but it is imperative that it let me install any Linux S.O., particularly a Debian version. I'm going to install a home automation server called OpenHab on a linux platform, so I need to know whether it is possible or not to gain access to the bios and set the boot to load the installation program from a pendrive. Have you been able to load the bios setup page?

@alsoares, I've successfully installed Debian 11 on the T4 Pro Mini PC (Intel Celeron). The install went well, and the WiFi adapter was discovered without issue.

Pressing the 'delete' key when the system is booting should get you into the BIOS, where you'll want to enable boot-on-power-on (Chipset -> South Cluster Configuration -> Restore AC Power Loss: Power On)

The WiFi adapter is an Intel AC3165, so you'll need to install the appropriate drivers.
