It is a cd and 0ne of a set of 3 to install linux debian. It has UEFI
for sure. I can use my computer to put disk one on a usb drive. Or
maybe it would be better if I bought one.

A friend of mine bought a refurbished computer. It is an all in

that the USB would show up first. Nothing that I have done
works. It just says no files to load and I tried many times. It
is an older computer and it weights a ton. Can anyone tell me how
to get Linux on this machine. Since I did not buy this one I have
no idea what is inside of it. Hope some knows how to get around
this problem.
Which installer are you trying to use (DVD/Live)? Does the PC have
BIOS or UEFI? Have you tried booting from CD/DVD? Some older computers
do not properly boot from USB.
