Alright, I've read a number of threads pertaining to this and taken a few steps towards each of those solutions, but so far, none have helped. I bout a Toshiba Satellite E55-A5114 laptop about a week ago, and, as with all my devices, moved to remove windows, install ubuntu, and move on with my life. In either case, I used Windows 8 for about a week before trying to install with my boot usb. I originally set up [or tried to set up] a dual boot with Bodhi Linux, however, I messed up the partitioning and ultimately had to reset the laptop to factory settings before even having a chance to do anything [I think the issue was I set the boot partition to one that was already in use, instead of creating a new partition]. Once restored to factory settings, I made a backup image of Windows 8 onto my external hard drive and then attempted to just install Ubuntu 14.04 64bit and wipe the disk in doing so. I had to use an external keyboard to reach the bios menu at the start [apparently my F* keys don't work too well on this laptop] and finally got to booting from my usb. I tried installing Xubuntu, Mint 17, and Ubuntu 14.04 multiple times, and the install went smoothly, however, after each install, I would reboot and the computer was unable to boot from the HDD-- only able to boot from my USB livedisc. I tried Boot-Repair, and the link was http://paste.ubuntu.com/7576549/ . Equally, I ran Boot Info Script, to which my output was:

cat: /tmp/BootInfo-PPlZ7x1C/Tmp_Log: No such file or directory
No volume groups found
Other than that, I've had no luck. Anytime I try to boot from HDD or anything other than my livedisc, I get the 'Reboot and select proper boot device' screen. Please help, I'd love to actually be able to use my new computer again, preferrably without windows.

cat: /tmp/BootInfo-PPlZ7x1C/Tmp_Log: No such file or directory
No volume groups found
Other than that, I've had no luck. Anytime I try to boot from HDD or anything other than my livedisc, I get the 'Reboot and select proper boot device' screen. Please help, I'd love to actually be able to use my new computer again, preferrably without windows.
