Boot Device Not Found

Post by mint2017 »

Hello everybody,

I have recently installed Linux Mint 18.3 "Sylvia" - Cinnamon (64-bit) on my 2014 HP Pavilion 15 laptop that originally came with Windows 8 but was upgraded to Windows 10.

Mint installation was done clean (with hard drive being cleaned and Windows 10 deleted).

The only issue so far is that every time I start the computer black screen with Boot Device Not Found message shows up and then I manually boot Mint by going F9 - Boot Manager - Boot Option Menu - Boot From EFI File - Select a file system - Select a File to Boot - EFI - ubuntu - shimx64.efi

After this, Mint works fine.

My question is how to get Mint to boot automatically?

So far I have tried enabling and disabling both Secure Boot and Legacy in BIOS but no luck.

From a live usb session provide the following command results, open a terminal:

Code: Select all

sudo parted --list
sudo efibootmgr -v
inxi -Fxz
