I wanted to install Manjaro xfce on a new old machine with Intel J1900 (GA-IMB1900TN). However the setup fails with the installation of the boot loader in /boot/efi and retunr code 1. I’ve tried it 3 times and it’s always the same.
So I just tried a Windows (Windows 10 Pro 21H2) and it installs and boots fine. What it the problem?
Edit: I always encrypt the system partition, but the board has no TPM and the CPU does not support AES. May this be a problem?
One quick way to find out, is to install without encryption and see if it still fails. If it doesn’t, then yes, it’s because of encryption. If it does fail, it’s something else.
