Hi Regeneration,
nothing else changed? So we just have to copy the database files to the stick?
Regards, Ludwig
Yes.

Your system must have special recovery parititon as 1st partition. That's probably the problem.Sorry for the late bump.. but I could use your wise bits about using Intel Microcode Boot Loader.
What I have accomplished so far:
Made a bootable usb - copied the folder contents -ran the IMBL program and it installs successfully.
Device to be run on --->> Prehistoric laptop from 2007-2008.
Fujitsu siemens amilo pi 2530
Bios Type: Phoenix BIOS
When I try and run it on the laptop it goes into grub recovery with the error below.
The error is /boot/grub/i386-pc/normal.mod normal.mod not found.
(hd0,msdos1) This is where the boot(MBR) is installed (Boot only, OS files are on another partition).
When I run ls command all the other partitions give this error Error: unknown filesystem.
the OS is installed on (hd0,msdos2). ---> Error: unknown filesystem.
(hd0,msdos3) ---> Error: unknown filesystem.
(hd0,msdos5) ---> Error: unknown filesystem.
PS:
UBU won't work on that machine so can't run that.

Hi,Has there yet been any documented instance of anyone being negatively affected by Spectre / Meltdown who has ignore all the patches and workarounds ?
Thanks for the quick reply, yes it does have a separate recovery partition. Should I try the HD install method or is there a work around with USB?Your system must have special recovery parititon as 1st partition. That's probably the problem.
Check the BIOS settings for hard drive order and set the USB HDD as 1st boot and drive. Sometimes there are several options.Thanks for the quick reply, yes it does have a separate recovery partition. Should I try the HD install method or is there a work around with USB?
*Edit
Made some progress..
All errors have disappeared and when it boots it now boots to the grub prompt not the grub recovery prompt
When I type Exit it boots into windows.
My question is .. does it actually load the cpu microcode when I type exit and loads windows like that?
Updated the microcode to the latest 2021 version
You can update the microcode files manually.
The latest version from REGENERATION's website NGOHQ.COM or the mirror servers is 0.5.4 - November 26, 2019!
