If linux doesnt install… force it…
Open Crosh
Type vmc stop termina
Type vmc launch termina

Check if penguin is available check if it has connection.
If penguin is available and no connection what can you do? Do you want me to tell you or you dont?

Theres a guide made a few threads bellow with images that explains well your options. Do a bit of forum search… Regarding the camara… forget about it… or send that camera drivers to fydeOS… or ask someone your brand if they have those drivers for linux.

Hi could you help out , have this exact issue , penguin is opening but only loading

Same thing… force shutdown re-open.
If anything you can delete that penguin via crosh:

ctrl alt t
vsh termina
lxc stop penguin ; lxc delete penguin
exit
exit
exit

Click on penguin and hold. Try and error and repeat once it works it works and sudo ping google.com

thank yo for the fast reply , I hope I did it right, this is what I typed on crosh:

crosh> vsh termina
ERROR vsh: [vsh.cc(122)] Failed to get VM info for termina
ERROR - ERROR: command failed
crosh> lxc stop penguin ; lxc delete penguin
ERROR - ERROR: unknown command: lxc
crosh> stop penguin
ERROR - ERROR: unknown command: stop
crosh>

if vsh termina failed its because you havent booted penguin.
Start penguin even if penguin fails leave it open then go to crosh try vsh termina.

I know… it doesnt makes sense but to enable accessing lxc termina you have to first start the penguin to be able to access it.

If still nothing works then u better just reflash and reinstall the system (dont powerwash it).
