Public bug reported:
Already reported a bug, why am I doing this again? EFI problems, Windows
8, not trying to setup a dual-boot. I just want Windows gone. Booting
from the USB through legacy mode gets a black screen, blinking cursor.
If I choose 'Something Else' during the partitioning phase and select to
remove the EFI partition, the installation goes successfully with no
errors, but upon restarting, the system does not boot from the HDD. I'm
just trying to install Lubuntu and reading through fourteen pages of
Google results has gotten me nowhere.
