Hi all,
I bought a Lenovo Ideapad 100S before Christmas. My old netbook is not reliable (loose LVDS connector inside the glued screen frame, it seems) and I need a lightweight and trustworthy laptop when on call.
So the idea was installing a proper OS on it but the UEFI is castrated to a point that I cannot even boot from USB (after SecureBoot is off).
"System does not have any USB boot option" I get if I jump through all hoops and restart with USB device chosen
Hi Peter This link claims you can disable booting from the hard drive which allows a fallback to usb booting. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2285585 Cheers Nic
