[SOLVED] Cannot install Snakeoil on UEFI-only NUC
#6
Check your BIOS and look for anything that says "Compatibility Support Module", can you turn on legacy support mode?

Technically, the problem with the ISO is it will not boot in a EFI environment, but the OS itself should be fine (as long as your computer works with unsigned boot). After the install, start a command shell, and try this and see if it works?

1. After install, start a command shell.
2. Changeroot to remount the install edition as your root. I can't remember offhand what the path is, but you can find it in df or mount, then run chroot
Code:
chroot /path/to/your/install/partition
3. Run the following commands and see what happens:
Code:
sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
sudo grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --bootloader-id=grub_uefi --recheck grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
