HP Recommended
Product: Elitebook 840
Operating System: Linux

I've installed Linux Mint 21 onto an Elitebook (for a friend who isn't computer savvy). If I just let it attempt to boot, it shows Reset System and does this in a loop. I can get it to boot into Mint (though it's listed as ubuntu) either through Esc and then F9 (for boot options) or setup Multiboot in BIOS setup via F10. The long term solution to this seems to be to use a Customized Boot of \EFI\ubuntu\grubx64.efi. The problem I have is that when I try to update this path, it won't allow me to enter the backslash character. Does anyone have a solution to this?
