Installation stuck on Grub2

Post by Chirs »

Hello everyone,

I'm new around so hi to all and hope i post on a good place.
My issue is, I want to install my first ever Linux to learn it, I chose Mint. Want to install it on my old laptop Acer Aspire ES1-533. I have tried multiple times and failed all the time. Install goeas up to installation of Grub2 and freezes. Please help me, and remember my IT skills are quite basic so please try examining in simple way what to do. I attach screen of error which pops up on screen when booting, maybe it will make things more clear to you.

Check your bios and ensure you have done the following if available.
Sata mode = AHCI
enable Uefi (if available)
Disable fast boot
Disable secure boot.
Can you boot into the live session usb?
