4xx Client Error 412 Precondition Failed
1

Hello !

I installed garuda for the first time two month ago to try it.

but i want to remove it and back to windows, but the problem is i can't access the boot menu i pressed keys from F1 to F12 & del,Esc, End , nothing happend couldn't boot from the usb.

I tried to change garuda boot options but it didn't save the changes .

I'm not new to linux and still learning about it, it may be silly question but thanks in advance!

just boot to your UEFI settings from grub and make your USB the highest priority in boot order.

Booting with Secure Boot Enabled | Solus Help Center (getsol.us)

not sure this would help, but for me this worked and I was able to register the cer file into my secure boot bios, so now that new solus 4.4 boots right into it, anyway this is not an arch linux, but maybe someway we will see arch linux using the same type of method, but I am not sure about all laptops and desktops, but I tried this on one laptop and two desktops and registering the .cer file has fixed at least these in able to boot with secure boot on, if that's something that might help you. both my desktop's are gigabyte pc's Z690 AORUS MASTER (rev. 1.x) running windows 11 for my epic games,
xbox games app in windows and ubisoft assassins creed games that I also play in windows, which can somewhat be used in linux but I only tested it in USB bootup live mode, I didn't install it on my newer pc for now I want to use just windows, for example my cooler master case, doesn't have any linux software for the LED lights on the case, and my older gigabyte is G1.Assassin 2 (rev. 1.0) Intel® X79 Chipset, that a few years old, this method for secure boot works for them and my laptop is an ASUS brand Republic of Gamers laptop. was able to run gnome solus with nvidia software mode feature in the bootloader, and plasma boots right into kde or plasma, and; budge Solus doesn't like my nvidia 3D card that iso didn't boot with rufus because of the rtx 2070 3D card in the G1.Assassin 2 (rev. 1.0) desktop.

Thank you so much!

I played on linux it's been great but some games won't even open or me have problems with it.
so for now better back to windows on this one, and keep linux on my laptop.
i didn't know about solus before but i will try it for sure.
thank you again for your time.

Solus and Arch-based sometimes don't play well together. The Solus distribution is new, has had a few internal problems, and has had a hard time keeping the doors open. That said, they have some very knowledgeable, hard-working folks on their team. They just released updated ISOs again after a dry spell.:slight_smile:
