I agree that it's not a big deal, but there still should be an option in my opinion. It can be a lifesaver to be able to search on older devices.

Thanks for the advice, but this was sollved already, I removed the SSD and the USB booted, so I wiped the SSD and put a GPT partition table on it. Then, I could boot and install.

I just changed my Firefox version to non-ESR to fix this, because newer versions had better(and automatic) wayland support

Thanks for the advice, I had to use non-ESR Firefox to get it working.

Yeah I'll plug it into my computer and edit the grub settings. Terrible that the USB drive just doesn't boot with an SSD inside, even though I manually selected the USB from the boot menu. That made me break my water seal and this device lost its IP rating 🙃. Thanks very much for your help however, your affirmation about the unplugging the SSD was was very helpful.

That didn't work either but I solved it by removing the ssd.

A USB keyboard works fine, and also the USB drive is detected when it is bootable. Only one USB port but the tablet supports pxe boot. Do you think I could get mileage off of that if I set up a server on my other laptop and connected them via ethernet? I can flash the drives with dd and they show up when plugged in. I also tested that they can boot on my laptop which they can.

No, I just wanted a durable tablet and getacs computers were used by my local law enforcement agency.

I can't speak to the boot order because ive always used the boot menu to select manually what I want to boot, to be cautious, but I have tried shifting it and that didn't help.

Do you think that removing the ssd will help? I can't see a way it will, but I might as well give it a shot because its my last chance really.

I cannot see grub at all.
