So I have attempted to install Ubuntuvon my Acer aspire e5-573. This laptop I could consider it a fossil, so I thought about making it run easier by replacing windows with ubuntu. Before this it was running in legacy boot mode, so I swapped it to UEFI with secure boot disabled and had to restart like twice for the USB to show up by itself. I have deleted the windows on it and replaced it with ubuntu, but the thing is that it does not show up in the boot menu at all. After the USB installation I removed the USB and pressed enter, laptop proceeded to restart and then no bootable drive found. I restarted several times with no success and I even re- installed ubuntu again and it still did not show up. Considering that now my only option is booting from the USB, how would I make it appear in the boot menu? The USB was setup with FAT32.

  • Before anything else you should check UEFI > Boot menu. – ChanganAuto Aug 06 '21 at 13:35
