Summary | 0004291: Laptop turns off while installing. | ||||
Description | Hello! So, yesterday we bought a new laptop, but I didn't want to throw the other away. I fixed the "no screen" problem that it had. I wanted to learn about linux before, but I never had the opportunity since I didn't have a "spare laptop". It's an Acer Aspire 5542g. With Windows, or with Ubuntu it runs just fine. But when it comes to Kali Linux (any version), it just won't. (Linux live comes in, and it works!) Sometimes it just switches off, sometimes before shutting down it says "Sent SIGTERM (this then changes to SIGKILL) to all processes. And baaaam, the laptop is off. I would really like to use this OS on the laptop. But if the system doesn't tell me, what's up, I just really can't pass through this problem. Is it a software related bug? Then what to do? Or is there any fix for this? Thanks in advance, | ||||
Steps To Reproduce | Every installation so far. | ||||
Additional Information | I don't have a DVD at home right now. Should I get one to try installing from it? | ||||
An update: I just came home from my friend. I tried to install it again, and this time it turned off at 73%. Usually it does this at around 10-20%. Maybe it's an overheating problem (although it should turn off while installing other systems then, so I'm not sure), so I'm gonna try to install it outside. Any other advices would be great. |
