I have successfully installed Ubuntu 16.4 on my laptop, but after installation the machine will not boot from the hard drive - boots fine from USB, but not from teh HD. I followed the instructions in this thread, https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=11919563 but the problem still exists. Any help would be appreciated! Thank you!
