Hi, Venno here. Someone i know bought a laptop recently but it appears that the Laptop isn't willing to start up fully. It's an "Acer Nitro AN515-54" Linux operating system. Once they start up the Laptop it's stuck at the booting up screen where it says to press a key to continue or skip the "startup.nsh" We've tried going into the BIOS and check the boot tab but there's only 1 button called "EUFI_SHELL" and pretty much does nothing. It's a newly bought laptop so don't really understand why it won't start up. Thanks for reading and your time.
The person who bought the laptop likely set it up incorrectly. Identify the desired distribution, erase the internal storage, and perform a fresh installation.
She got the laptop from someone else. The person who tried to install Arch did a terrible job. Reach out to the laptop's seller and ask for a partial refund. For the device itself, simply erase the storage and perform a fresh installation of the desired operating system.
It managed to boot to EFI shell. From here OP should be able to load the kernel and then the OS but he not only shouldn't have to do it, but it might not even work.
