I ended up downloading an earlier snapshot from Distrowatch torrent archive and it has installed and booted ok.

I am going to try the right now, i will edit my message to tell if it worked or not.


EDIT: neon-useredition-20171108-1515-amd64.iso does not have the Grub bug! It works.

Yes - the 08112017 is the last iso that works.

Still no news on a fix that I can see (which is disappointing - especially since the faulty iso versions are still available to download).

It will be fixed on next build:

Code: Select all

That is great news. I see that a new ISO has been published today and will give this a go tonight.

Pleased to report that I tested the 29112017 snapshot tonight and it installed fine.

I just tested it and i agree with you, it works well now.

Indeed! I agree with you, it works!
I did a fresh install with the 20171129 image and it works fine!
Great job guys!

So grateful for the dev effort.

Hi, new KDE NEON user here.
I have got (typical? ) bug when installing this distriubution:
Returned to the GRUB menu during EFI boot.
So, that's no easy system loading.

To be exact:
When booting computer I choose Linux, but I can only see the grub2 command line itself, and the system further doesn't load.
On the other hand, when I use Windows loader and use auxiliary options of the UEFI (I will choose to load from a specific device (HDD here) ) Linux fires up.

Note: I downloaded and installed Kde Neon in pendrive (using RUFUS).
The version is "neon-useredition-20180816-1023-amd64.iso".

Should I format the linux partitions (I did them with Linux Mint in the past) and install another version? Or try to rescue exisiting system by copying some files, etc. ?

@Drayldan.
You need to start a new thread for that, not tag on to an existing thread that's 9 months old!

Allright!
