The live usb of Q4os Centaurus doesn't boot. After some time "admiq@debian" comes and it works like a terminal. I don't know any commands so I wrote reboot and it restarts but same problem. My system is brand new Lenovo i3 10100 4gb ram UEFI NON CSM.

And ISO I used is KDE 64BIT . And this iso is booting perfectly fine on an older dell laptop (MBR).

The version I have used is q4os-3.12-x64.r5.iso.
I have used rufus with gpt option.
I have also used other usb utilities like aioboot, easy2boot but they are either not recognised or after selecting to boot q4os live in the menu A black screen with "_" appears blinking and nothing happens for a while.

i have tested rufus with other distros based on "ubuntu" and they are working fine. Well they arent as fast as this (atleast thats what i think).

This is highly likely a 'Dell' thing as in hardware or BIOS related. For me Centaurus KDE boots from a USB on my Dell OptiPlex but not on the Vostro whereas Gemini boots fine on both machines. No matter if I use balenaEtcher, Rosa image writer or the Kanotix tool the results are the same. Maybe your Lenovo has the same attributes.

You won't get Centaurus to work on 10th gen Intel graphics. They changed just enough in it that it requires new drivers in both kernel AND Mesa that it will not work out of the box in Centaurus. Use Gemini.
