Well, I am Making Many Mistakes

Yes, it is, 3M.

3M in Medical Terminolgy stands for Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing.

It is old due to Old Age, lack of sleep and poor night vision.

Cold weather in Australian Winter wakes me at 5AM whether, I had the minimum 4 hours of Deep Sleep.

Then nothing else to do I fiddle with the Old Laptop which my son has lost interest, totally. It was in the attic, figuratively, speaking.

Poor night vision and small font make to make many mistakes.

I had this problems in 2010 when I was trying to download and test 100 Linux Distributions. Download speed was so poor I had to do that after midnight. By the way, I was busy day time working in the University as a teacher.

Now download speed here in AUSTRALIA, what I did download in one year in CEYLON, I did it under one week.

So testing Linux became automatic.

Now current episode is due to me finishing my book on Linux Essentials, and I need have a new chapter on current affairs in Linux.

Now BIG Linux installed in 12 minutes but Btffs file system. Connecting to Internet added few minutes.

MANJARO finished under 10 minuted no power, no internet and consuned 2% of the battery. Again butter fs file system.

There is a caveat here both UBUNTU and MANJARO are subservient to Microsoft Windows and using FAT partition of 300MB.

I know Debian can boot from anywhere from the disk. One has to have a /boot partion but now the sophisticated EFI.

I always used it as the first partition.

It uses 1GB and won't let Virus to creep in after installation.

I already have a Boot Virus to cope with.

What I do now is Reinstall MANJARO on EXT partition and ERASE the Microsoft FAT partition leaving only (one) 1MB for Microsoft guys. See whether it can boot from EFI. It should.

Thanks to UBUNTU which I call a Linux Virus, I have discovered many fancy stuff of booting.

DEBIAN has finished.

Well, first time in my life I am booting without Microsoft dedicated FAT Partition.
