Product: HP 255 G6 (2EW01ES)
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Good day, everyone! Sorry for my bad english 😞

I have a HP 255 G6 laptop.I successfully installed Windows 10 and i want to install Ubuntu at this laptop.I downloaded .iso file from official site(Ubutnu 18.04 LTS) and installed him at USB using UNetBootIn. When I turn on my laptop I press ESC(for HP) and F9(also for HP).I see "Boot Options" and I select my USB device... and I have a problem "An operating system wasn't found. Try disconnecting any drivers that don't contain an operating system". WHY? I installed Windows 10 as the same way and i don't saw this message from BIOS.

SOME PARAMETERS:

  1. 500 Gb HHD(Local Disk(C) (ACTIVE, 350 Gb: Windows 10 and programs)),( Linux (L)( 100 Gb: empty))
  2. [BIOS]Secure Boot: Disabled
  3. [BIOS] USB Boot: Enabled
  4. [BIOS] Legacy Support: Enabled
  5. [BIOS] UEFI Boot Order: First: OS Boot Manager
  6. [BIOS] Legacy Boot Order: First: Notebook Hard Drive

Is your Windows 10 installation GPT - UEFI or MBR?

 

Are you trying to install Ubuntu as a GPT or MBR installation?
