      Downloaded 64bit, AMD, VGA, image file from official site. Unzipped and used Etcher to write bootable image to USB from Linux PC. The install starts ok on NUC Gen 7 mini PC (Celeron J4005 CPU, 8GB SO-DIMM DDR4 RAM, 128GB SSD, Gigabit RJ45, Gigabit USB 3.0 - RJ45 adapter). The menu is displayed, option 1 then selected, Accept then pressed with mouse for T&Cs, Installer screen displays, Typing 'i', or 'I' or pressing OK with mouse produces no response. Screen hangs at Installer screen. After 20 mins still no response. Grrr. Any thoughts?

        The mouse wouldn't work there, nor would typing the letter. There is more than one entry on the screen so pressing the letter only highlights the entry.

        Select the menu entry with the up/down arrow and then press Enter.
