Title:
  Ubuntu won't install beside Mint

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Tried installing Mint beside Windows at the beginning. Could only
  access Mint from bios after installation, or Windows, by changing boot
  order. Tried installing Ubuntu beside Mint to see if that made a
  difference. Now, when I boot (with f1} I only get boot order Ubuntu
  and Windows boot manager and neither one boots up, just comes back to
  the boot order no matter what I so. Booted from Windows recovery usb
  and just would not recover no matter what option I picked. Figured
  Windows was toast so formatted any windows partition (From the Ubuntu
  install disk after loading and trying Ubuntu as the option and going
  to Disks} and deleted those partitions to turn them into unused space.
  Rebooted and reloaded Ubuntu install disk and tried an install beside
  Mint, which still appeared to be there. No dice.Still won't boot
  unless I hit f1 and then defaults to just the boot order of Ubuntu and
  Windows boot manager! Would like to just erase my ssd and start with
  fresh install of Ubuntu but not sure how to accomplish that unless I
  use my desktop (That has Windows, Mint and Ubuntu running side by side
  with Grub showing up at boot to give me the option of OS's} I have
  another ssd plugged into a usb that I could exchange for this ssd in
  my laptop and do whatever is necessary to it from there. Or I could
  just download the Windows 10 ISO from the Microsoft website and start
  over. Not sure if any of those options are the right ones. HELP!
