Boot to grub, then type these command: ls (to show your your disk partitions) set root=(hd0,gptX) "(where your installation file is stored)" ls (hd0,gptX)/efi/boot/ press tab to complete and show you the files. Then type: chain loader /efi/boot/grubx64.efi Then: Boot If you don't understand the commands above, just Google "how to boot from USB in grub" and use the same procedure but choose the partitionwhere you burned the iso . Wish you well. Adios!
