Hello guys as you may know, the Calamares installer has a bug when installing the GRUB Bootloader on a PC with MBR BIOS. According to this user, who investigated the bug a little more thoroughly and discovered that the i-386pc directory is empty or does not exist: https://sourceforge.net/p/peppermintos/pepos/inst/thread/aa604b0907/?limit=25#a59c

So I ask you this question with all due respect to the PeppermintOS team: Are you going to fix it? Because OK, the Mini installer exists, but the idea is for the Calamares installer to work with MBR and UEFI. That would also make the ISO more practical and functional, and who knows, it might even improve Peppermint OS's reputation.

We will begin Trixie base test for the flagship in the next week or so, This is with corrected Calamares configuration.. The goal is to have a public release of the flashship in October sometime
Hope that helps.
Also....If you are interested in testing let me know I will add you to our list of testers.

I'm telling you this, guys, because I really like your distro. It's wonderful and very useful.

Thank you for responding, Pepper. That helps me a lot. And yes, I would like to help you with the beta testing. It would be an honor for me.
And when you guys are going to release Peppermint OS Devuan Base, I want to help you with that too, with your permission, of course.
Devuan is not released yet in that case we cannot determine what we will do .
After they release, then we can get a general idea.
I will test as well as I prefer Devuan
