Can't boot into Live USB, though secure boot has been disabled
I also have an Acer Aspire E5 and had the same problem. Follow these steps:
They assume that you are installing Ubuntu, but might also be required for booting from a Live USB
- Make sure your UEFI is up to date.
- In UEFI, you must set a supervisor password. Once the supervisor password is set, some new menus are accessible.
- Enter the "Select an UEFI file as trusted for executing" menu. It will allow you to declare the newly installed Ubuntu boot image as trusted on your laptop.
- Select EMMC >> EFI >> Ubuntu and select the file shimx64.efi. You will be prompted to give it a name of your choice (which will appear in the F12 boot options).
- Type the name press Enter and then "Yes" should be highlighted.
- Press enter again. Restart the computer without any boot disk and tap F12 during the boot process.
- You should now get the boot option menu with the name you chose.
- You can change the boot order in UEFI now so that it boots directly to the Grub screen.
- Either disable the supervisor password, or save it in a secure place.
