I finally switched from Win10. I booted it from a live USB, and everything was golden. Then, I decided to dual-boot it first in case anything goes wrong. After that, I rebooted, removed the USB, and launched Fedora on GRUB.

This is where weird things happen. It showed the launch screen first. Then… nothing. No key combination worked on that screen; only the power button works. When shutting down, it also shows the launch screen and shuts down.

Now here is my system: I’m using a Lenovo Ideapad 3 Gaming laptop with NVIDIA GTX 1650 Ti and AMD Ryzen 7 4800H with Radeon graphics. I’m definitely sure it’s caused by NVIDIA, but I couldn’t find a proper solution for me.

    I had a similar problem a few years ago, blank screen after fresh install, no response to anything, figured it was nvidia and it was.

    From grub i selected uefi firmware settings, which opened lenovo setup utility.

    Configuration tab, switched graphic device from discrete to switchable. Upon reboot, mint opened and displayed everything correctly using the integrated intel graphics instead of nvidia.
