For the record. SteamOS is a highly specialized linux distro for entertainment purposes and not much else. If you still want a good Linux OS, you want a full Linux distro, like mint.
same boat... I have a rog asus laptop, and it boots just fine to install. then once it finishes... it boots to a black screen with the (-) and I can't even type coz it deletes itself super fast :( I do have a deck tho... lol but I wanted to test on the laptop first
Hey mate. I saw your Laptop is using a dedicated nvidia graphics card (3050ti). Were you able to use the graphics card for games in steamOS? Or could you only use the integrated AMD graphics card? I would appreciate a answer! Since I have a similar Laptop build with AMD CPU, iGPU and dedicated nvidia GPU.
I've tried multiple times. but current newest installer looks way different. all goes well then after reboot it cant find bootable device. I've never had issues like this. I've installed loads of os's including redstar os lol. but this is frustrating
holoiso install success then i remove pendrive and after starting my pc then give me Black screen please help do i need ethernet cable or anything else?

Typically with Linux distros, one types the command 'startx' and press (do not type the ' marks). If all is set up, it should load a GUI. If not, you get an error message and then get to learn about drivers and reading the /var/log/message file for what might have gone wrong.
Nice easy to follow vid man thank you !! As for anyone asking yes you can run this on a partition look up linux partition installation and dual boot if you want that its not hard to do
I dont think people are aware that STEAMOS is downloadable to PC. I've done it; however, i ran into issues. I did not have a hard drive with empty space to boot to. Unfortunately, the .ISO i chose was the "Automatic version." It couldn't find available space sonit installed on my 32 gb flashdrive.... 😢
stuck on verifying step before boot into steamos. Been at this for 5 hours looking for a fix.. seems like many people have had this issue.. I can’t seem to find a working fix.
i did everything like you in your video. When i boot the USB Stick i only see: "EFI Shell" and "Boot into Firmware Interface" Wich means i am missing "HoloISO Installer (Copy-to-RAM)" and "HoloISO Installer" Did i miss something? And to be honest i have no clue whats insinde my Laptop because a friend gave it to me becuase he doesnt need it anymore. Any way yo can help me?
Go to BIOS settings, and set the boot device as USB STICK and restart. It has to boot into SteamOS. Otherwise you need to recreate a bootable USB again. Try ventoy method too.
This doesn’t work…mine is stuck on black screen…I can see the “steam login:” but can’t do anything with that…next time make sure you test this thoroughly
This installation failed even on a generic Intel CPU (no Nvidia). If you want Steam just install a Debian based distro or Arch if you are more familiar with Linux and ditch these hot garbage OSes.
When I run the installer, I get to that EFI boot selector screen, I select HoloIso and the Steam Deck Logo shows, and it gets stuck on that until I shut off the computer, any way to fix this? I noticed you are using Update 1.0, and that the dev on HoloIso actually removed NVIDIA drivers on one of the latest updates, and updated the prerequisites to only AMD hardware, I am trying to install on a i5-7400. I tried downloading the older 1.0 update, but the download link is no longer working. Do you happen to have the files or know how to download the older files?
The OS itself is official, but it's made specifically only for the Steam Deck's hardware. The community took HoloISO and made it compatible with non-Steam Deck hardware. However, last time I checked, it only works on AMD hardware (CPU & GPU), since that's the hardware brand the Deck has
@@kskroyaltech i have issue with installation:[] I have already make a 60gb unlocated space to install it alongside windows 10 on one partition after choosing nvme01 it selected 15kb space instead of 60gb So do you know how to choose the a specific part using terminal?

Attempt to plug in your display into the motherboard and not the GPU. If it works, then there is an issue with NVIDIA support. Install the OS using the integrated graphics then install NVIDIA drivers later in the plasma interface. If you are still having issues, then you may need to install another OS like the user above suggested.
It's not an official OS for PC by ValvE. The community has merely taken the OS and made it compatible with hardware that isn't the Steam Deck, since HoloISO is made specifically only for the Deck's hardware. At the same time, the only hardware this OS will work on is AMD (CPU & GPU), since that's the hardware the Deck uses
why calling it steamos while its holoiso copy of steamdesk ui os it has nothing to do with original steamos that you can download from steam site itself ?
Thank you, random Indian man from TH-cam. You really are the saviour when it comes to random tech tutorials.
You are most welcome
For the record. SteamOS is a highly specialized linux distro for entertainment purposes and not much else. If you still want a good Linux OS, you want a full Linux distro, like mint.
If it's verified by Valve they should just make their own Operating Systems to work similar to Windows which would be nice.

It uses NVIDIA GPU for Games. And iGPU for Primary VGA.

would it still work with a laptop with 4 gigs of ram?
It boots the OS. but you cannot play any games because of less ram.
How do I take it off?

Does IT work on rog ally itz an pc handelt 😊
Anyone tried it on netbook with Atom for retro gaming [SNES, PSX, N64 ] ???
my flashdrive is not recognized after i install the OS using balena etcher
Yes it wont. Do one thing install a software called SD formatter and format your SD Card.
my laptop specs are
i5 7200U processor
8 GB RAM
NVIDIA GEFORCE 940MX graphics card
256 GB SATA SSD
can i run it??
can Steam OS use my dedicated GPU??
YEs give a try
nope nvidia gpus dont work well with holo iso use chimera OS instead its basically a debian steam od
The guide is not complete without saying how to install steamos on computers without uefi bios.
you cant i think steam os requires uefi same with chimera but you can port over steam os features on any arch linux with some terminal prompts
Is it still the case that holoiso has wifi issues?
I guess. But I heard newer builds got fix for that. Will make an updated video on this topic.
I just have a black screen agter i unplug my usb drive@@kskroyaltech

You need the USB drive.
Can use ventoy flash ?
If you're going to say in the video any compatible you need to have the word compatible in the title of the video.
Sorry will do.
