Lyn Perrine (walterorlin) wrote : boot from first hard disk fails to find disks

Boot a lubuntu amd64-desktop iso by selecting it in the boot order menu which is f11 on my motherboard and and at the first menu select English for the language and then at that menu try to boot from the first hard disk at the try lubuntu without installing , install lubuntu... menu . It will say boot failed press any key to continue and then the system will reboot and boot up normally but will say the boot has failed. I am trying to chainload grub2 when booting from first hard disk.

I expected the boot to chainload the first disk in my case my crucial mx100 ssd which is the first device in boot order.

Instead my uefi system finds no bootable system and restarts. I also get the same result in some virtual machines using kvm.
