When I am in the live version of LL it detects my laptops ssd as a sd card reader and when I look into it all the LL files are there, but I can't boot to it.

Code: [Select]
$ sudo lsblk
NAME   MAJ:MIN RM  SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
sda      8:0    0 55.9G  0 disk
├─sda1   8:1    0 48.1G  0 part /home
└─sda2   8:2    0  7.8G  0 part /
sr0     11:0    1 1024M  0 rom 
$ sudo parted -l
Model: ATA KINGSTON SV300S3 (scsi)
Disk /dev/sda: 60.0GB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B

Just giving you a example of what you should post next. While running in live session.

$ sudo fdisk -l

I don't know the command to check but maybe the SSD stayed partitionned in GPT/UEFI mode in some way.
It can be read in LL but not booted from.

I installed LL, but after the install should have been finished I restarted my computer and everything seemd normal. But after I had once shutdown and removed the usb I got LL from my laptop opened to the BIOS menu and the ssd I installed LL to was not detected.
When I am in the live version of LL it detects my laptops ssd as a sd card reader and when I look into it all the LL files are there, but I can't boot to it.
please, help!
