I wrote a 64bit version of Ubuntu 16.04 to DVD.

Can I just boot and follow steps to install like on previous versions?

At present when I put in the DVD and boot, I just get a blank screen, and I'm not sure how to access the Lenovo BIOS. I tried F1 & F2.

  • have you tried Esc or F10 or 12? – lapisdecor Nov 29 '17 at 18:21
  • If UEFI system, you want to boot Ubuntu installer in UEFI boot mode. While DVD should work, often better/easier to use flash drive. Do you have nVidia card/chip? If so you may need nomodeset. http://askubuntu.com/questions/162075/my-computer-boots-to-a-black-screen-what-options-do-i-have-to-fix-it Shows install with screen shots.

Lenovo boot screen can be accessed by Fn + F2 keys, boot device selection by Fn + F12.
