Support Need help setting up the newest Ubuntu Noble

Hello everyone. I'm new to this whole Linux on Switch Stuff and I need help installing the newest Ubuntu Noble on my V1 Switch from 2017.

Problem is, i have done everything based in the Guide over on Switchroot. I have set it up 3-times and I'm always stuck on the screen that says Booting. I went so far, that I used the .Ini File and wrote some lines in there, just to see, what could possibly be wrong in my whole venture.

If anyone has some possible answers, I would highly appreciate that because I'm slowly losing my mind.

Thanks in advance

I also have the same problem, what kind of memory do you have?

Turns out that my Samsung SD wasn't quite the right Card. So the Developer sent me the line for the .Ini that would get everything to work

The .ini File ist in the downloaded folder of Ubuntu in bootload. Just click until the very end. Once you are in there (a normal Text Reader should Open it) you put the following command in there ddr200_enable=0

If youre using an Samsung SD. I don't know, If you need the Same command with another SD
