Trying to install LMDE on a laptop (Windows 10).
Any help is appreciated.

      Ok, so I did that, I think.

      And it did NOT like that.

      But that eventually led to this change:

      But it kept freezing and restarting, repeatedly. After about a dozen times, I finally progressed to installing and made it here:

      And then it promptly froze and restarted. Went back to UEFI, disabled SecureBoot and FastBoot, enabled VMX and SGX based on this ‘error’:

      Still freezes and restarts, but it takes longer now. It will even do it at the login page if I’m not quick enough. Currently enjoying the longest stretch of stability by playing They Live on a newly installed LibreWolf.

      It used to do this with Windows10, too, but would return a WHEA UNCORRECTABLE ERROR complete with loud, constant speaker noise until it was forcibly restarted. The workaround then was a protein modeling program that kept the fan screaming but everything else still worked. So long as that program was running, it wouldn’t BSOD.

      Could this be related to the ‘nouveau fault at 6013d4’ part?

        Lenovo has a shitty app for your phone which will try to decode the audio code. Yes. Instead of giving you an error code you get one in audio form.

        My guess is your GPU is toast and/or overheating. Nouveau is the open source driver for Nvidia GPUs, so this driver screaming errors may indicate problems in this direction…
