Im trying to boot up a Ubuntu server 20.04 LTS on this mini pc Ive had for a long time collecting dust. 

I get this error.

I've used Rufus to create the booteable usb. Installed Ubuntu server to another usb (the sata cable in the system is broken) and when finished I unpluged the usb and rebootbutit would boot straight into bios instead of the usb drive with ubuntu installed onIMG_20200915_200946.thumb.jpg.c66c31007be45b32286384c0c822836b.jpg

And if you go to those BIOS settings what are the options?

There has to be more than that... and I'm not playing 20 questions about BIOS settings so just post anything relevant

Try changing the storage device option to either of the 'both' options.

I've done that but they revert back to Legacy OPROM first. All the options would revert back after saving and reseting

Sounds like the CMOS battery is dead or missing if it's not saving settings. If you go the main Boot options menu what does it show? Does the USB drive even show in the BIOS as a bootable option?

Went looking through the manual for it and the only other option I can think of would be turning secure boot in the advanced settings somewhere.

The other settings do save though. When i switch secure boot from windows uefi mode to other os. its saves the change. The menu shows this

I figured it out, turns out Rufus was the problem
