Hi. Can anyone help me?
I have an SSD where I had win10 installed. Now I've installed Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and I chose to delete everything from the SSD during installation but now Ubuntu only boot from liveUSB. I've already tried to boot repair but it didn't work. here is the output of boot repair: paste.ubuntu.com/p/yDVdrQnqQN (http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/yDVdrQnqQN)

Please do not forget to make your BIOS boot on sda (ATA KINGSTON SUV400S) disk!

The boot files of [The OS now in use - Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS] are far from the start of the disk. Your BIOS may not detect them. You may want to retry after creating a /boot partition (EXT4, >200MB, start of the disk). This can be performed via tools such as gParted. Then select this partition via the [Separate /boot partition:] option of [Boot Repair]. (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootPartition)


Did you have a boot partition? Apparently not, as is reported in your logfile.

BIOS is EFI-compatible, but it is not setup in EFI-mode for this installed-session.

You have installed in the now 35 year old BIOS/MBR configuration.
The far from start of drive is an old error primarily with IDE drives and old BIOS that could not boot from beyond the first 137GB of a drive. Have yet to see a newer UEFI system using AHCI for drives have that issue.

What brand/model system?

But you should be able to boot in the old mode as UEFI has that as CSM:

CSM - UEFI Compatibility Support Module (CSM), which emulates a BIOS mode

Do you have your UEFI set to boot in the old BIOS/Legacy/CSM boot mode?

I installed again, this time with a boot partition. Same problem. Run boot repair and didn't work as well. Here is the log: http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/rv6kGtc8N8/

My mother board is a Gigabyte GA-78LMT-USB3 rev5 (https://www.gigabyte.com/us/Motherboard/GA-78LMT-USB3-rev-50#sp). I looked for some UEFI in my BIOS but found nothing. I'm completely lost.

One more thing, every time I try to start Ubuntu from GRUB I have the message above repeated some times:


ACPI Error: AE_NOT_FOUND, While resolving a named reference package element - LNKC (20180531/dspkginit-414)

Ubuntu won't start in 90% the times after this message.

Have you updated UEFI/BIOS for your motherboard to latest available?

Gigabyte AMD based boards need IOMMU turned off in UEFI and perhaps boot parameter.

Gigabyte E2200 Killer Set grub IOMMU first, then UEFI setting or mouse/keyboard will not work

Is everything fine with BIOS and Bootloader? Do check with them!
