[SOLVED] Laptop install 6 fails on reboot "no bootable disk"
Posted: Aug 10th, '18, 14:11
I have a ten year old laptop ACER Travelmate 6594G-6492 i7 2.8ghz. After using a usb install stick, wiping and using entire disk, on reboot it says "this is not a bootable disk" - I 'live booted' a gparted thumb and it says that mageia wiped the hd's, installed a lot of software in / and /home, and that the 270 mb dos partition mounted on /boot/EFI is bootable.
I have tried multiple methods including switching between ACHI and IDE. That is, I have done several full installs including checking to make sure the drive was bootable with gparted, and I have searched this forum unsuccessfully for hints.
Why is the boot process not finding my partitions?
