I'm wondering if it required a signed kernel for secure boot. I did have
a friend recently who couldn't get his new laptop to boot a usb
installer, but instead needed to use an external DVD drive. I forget
what the bug was but he said it was hardware related, and known on his
particular Lenovo system. Do you have a DVD drive to try with?

Thanks,
