Hello all, I have now installed the machine to boot Xubuntu 15.04 in UEFI mode without secure boot. It does not freeze anymore. So we can finally let this mail thread fade out. Nevertheless, a warning for those who want to try the same: it's not a smooth experience at all. After installing on the full disk, the BIOS/UEFI reported that there is no bootable device. I booted from the live USB stick again and ran the boot-repair tool from the live session. This fixed the matter, after a fashion. When booting, I now get: 1. a warning that the default boot device is missing and that I should insert a recovery disk (I have none) [select OK, there is no other option] 2. a boot selection with options "Unnamed device" and "Windows Boot Manager" (there is no Windows on the machine) [select "Unnamed device"] 3. the Grub menu, finally Attempts to improve matters with 'efibootmgr' were futile. This will have to do for a while. cheers, Roland -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-usb" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
