Hi toomas,
It's booting fine (text installer only, no GUI boot yet) since I starting
using no truncation,

sudo dd bs=4M if=./OI-hipster-gui-20250606.usb of=/dev/sda status=progress
conv=fsync

I created another thread "Nvidia Driver 470.256.02 fails to load properly"
to address the GUI (lightdm graphical) failing.

Thanks,

Atiq
