Fixing bugs is always worthwhile.
If neither Fedora 22 or 23 install media can be booted, but Ubuntu can, then i suspect it's not kernel related.
Do you get different results when you use dd to create installer media? That really is the most reliable way to create media. But also dd and livecd-iso-to-disk create very different install media. Both should work. But the three finger salute with litd appears to not work on your system for as yet unknown reasons.
My suggestion:
- Create the installer media with dd
- Find a reset to defaults option in the firmware setup, and reset the firmware.
- Make sure you have the latest firmware version from the manufacturer.
- When you get to the boot menu, the UEFI bootloader will be white text on a black background, and e is used to edit boot entries. A gray background or color text is the BIOS borrower, tab key edits boot entries. You really want the former, fewer layers.
- Select the first boot option, e to edit, navigate to the linuxefi line, find the parameters 'quiet rhgb' and delete them both. Then use with F10 or Ctrl-x to boot this edited entry. Removing those will show more text on screen, and maybe the failure cause becomes more obvious.
Also, report what does happen, rather than what doesn't.
