Only thing that happens is that I get a black screen. Not sure what’s happening, no error, nothing.

Disabled secure boot and stuff in UEFI.

Any suggestions? I feel stupid.

Edit: I’ll leave it here for whomever might come next: use Ventoy to create the USB, not Rufus, and then boot in grub2 option. It’s installing now, at least. Let’s see…

    This is the issue. There are all kinds of special steps needed because of various issues.

    Skip Garuda and go for a distro that is known to work well on Surface like Fedora, Arch, or Mint.
