I’ve tinkered with Linux installations before but the last time I made changes to a BIOS it looked 8-bit, not like a windows program (I use Macs, for reference).

I have a Dell Inspiron 5502 (2021) that I just want to remove Windows from and install Batocera for gaming, but I can’t figure out how to wipe it.

I’m running Batocera from USB but when I go to “Install on a new disk” there are no targets available. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks!

  • So, you’ve been in the BIOS? I’d imagine it is set to UEFI and you’ve disables Legacy option ROMS and secure boot?

    Somewhere in the BIOS settings there should be a section or entry called Removable Media Boot/USB boot under “device”, “storage” or “boot”. You’ll need to toggle an option there.
