[Nottingham] stuck in reboot loop

[Reggae Maker]

Hi Godfrey,

Have you tried setting bios from UEFI to Legacy?
Tried another distro like PopOS or Linux Mint to see if the same thing happens?
Tried swapping out the SSD for a different drive?
Happy New Year to all..

Loads ok if booted from memory USB stick, but not sure how to access the main memory /dev/sda (do we still call it disk drive when it is solid state and not a rotating disk?)

Tried it out by booting from USB stick with Ubuntu 22 and looks great so I installed it - wiping out previous OS. Now when I start it up all I get is 'reboot system' or some such message flash on screen and then it goes blank and reboots - over and over until I power it off.
