Today, I received my new Packard Bell EN TE69BM. The Laptop comes with garbage aka Windows 8. I want to install Ubuntu on it. Unfortunately the BIOS is set up to boots the flash drive in EFI mode and this setting cannot be changed. I've tried installing Ubuntu 12.04 and 13.10 but to no avail. (SECURE BOOT is OFF) I get the options:
- try ubuntu without installing
- install ubuntu
- check disk for defects
No matter what I select, I simply get a never changing black screen no matter how long I wait. I have the latest BIOS installed on the device.
I've tried the following:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI
but it did not work!
Any way to get Ubuntu working on my notebook?
