I recently tried this for the first time for my grandad on an old dying laptop of his which was struggling to run at any speed.
During the install it had already messed with the hard drive partitions in order to run the live environment, which is a big no-no for me.
The whole point of the live environment is it shouldn’t change the system until you try to install!
It also meant I no longer had a free partition to install to anymore so I couldn’t even get through the installer since I also couldn’t resize etc. because the partition was in use.
Been using Debian/Ubuntu based Linux for about 20 years and never seen this issue until Pop! OS
I deleted the partition again first, then when I got to the installer, it had created a new 50GB partition and mounted /var/crash and /var/log which can’t be unmounted (tried force unmount and all that jazz)
I never consent to give my data away or being tracked, but how do you deal with so called legitimate interest?

Definitely agree the UK wouldn’t get the same terms it had before but I think currency is probably something they could negotiate to keep.
The UK was before and hypothetically would be again one of the biggest economies in the EU and the politicians know what the symbolism of giving up currency would mean to the British.
I really just couldn’t see them letting that stand in the way.
Having said all that, UK isn’t going to be trying to join the EU for a while yet, if ever.
Not really surprising, Microsoft has been going a lot harder on the PC and cloud front, so it makes sense that their audience is split between those and Xbox, meanwhile Sony exclusives are only available on PS5.
Anyone notice the PS1 and Dreamcast are designed similarly in a way? (lemmus.org)
