Re: This might be OT - install from live CD to SSD

You might try disabling the UEFI security in bios

getting everything specifically signed and approved withing the UEFI security environment sounds complicated.

Trying to install Fedora 20 to a replacement Kingston SSDNOW300V 120 GB SSD, from the live CD (Mate DE spin). The previous similar SSD died after 4 months excellent use.

My hardware is a bundle consisting of:- 
Motherboard - Asrock FM2A75 Pro 4+  with CPU an AMD trinity A4 5300, and 2x2GB DDR3 RAM

What's happening:-
On starting the bios (UEFI) can see the SSD (even displays the S/N); within UEFI is the only time I can see the SSD.
Fedora 20 live CD boots up ok (bar can't see the SSD), and following the option to install to hard drive it can't see any hard drive.
(I tried with Linux Mint 16, and the same problem).


A friend has successfully connected to the drive via an external SSD reader (connected by USB 3), and used a program "Partition wizard 8" to format it, and copy and read some files successfully (he was running Windows 7).

Any ideas what I could try ?

Thanks,
Joe
