This is really bad. It won't get past the Lenovo logo screen with the USB CD/DVD drive attached. It shuts down immediately. No listening to F12. Even without the drive, I can't get it to respond to any keystroke before shutting down.
Either the boot info is totally hosed from the install (had that happen many releases ago on my x120e, but not as sever). or the drive is bad.
I have the Win10 drive still here. I am going to have to put it in and hopefully get the system to boot.

Do you know what is your gpu unit? Best is if you download liveDVD and try. You like xfce --> https://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/30/Spins/x86_64... or torrent https://torrent.fedoraproject.org/torrents/Fedora-Xfce-Live-x86_64-30.torren... Once you boot up LiveDVD xfce open terminal and run this command lspci | grep -i --color 'vga|3d|2d'.Share with us findings if you before that not successfully install fedora spin xfce on your laptop.

I have a refurbished x131e. I pulled the 320G HD and installed an empty 500GB SSD. From a USB SD I started the x64 NetInstall.
In the install process, I set my location (Detroit), changed the host name, left the drive setup as default. Then I selected a bunch of software. I selected the Xfce desktop and a number of items on the right. About 1500 files and something like 1.23GB download. I proceeded with the install and set the root password and created my user ID.
The download completed as did the rpms installs. The kernel build I think completed. My attention was elsewhere when the system just turned off.
Bip.
Off.
I pulled the USB CD and powered up. It shut right off. I powered up again and the kernel selection menu shows for a bit and seems to select the first one. Then it shuts off.
I have gone through this 2 'step' power up attempt twice.
Now what? Anyone aware of anything like this? Should I try the install again, but just pretty much basic Xfce?
Should I download a LiveCD (is there an Xfce one?) and see what I see on about the system and status of the drive?
