Installing Mate from Live USB on Old Lenovo IdeaPad

Support & Help Requests

Hi I am trying to install Mate 22.04 from live usb on an old Lenovo IdeaPad that's running Win 10. On booting the usb from F12 I noticed a host of "previous" Linux OS's as well as Windows Manager in the boot menu. Can boot into live usb but as it starts I get error /boot/ file not found. I searched for possible fixes and the most popular seems to be to run sudo efibootmgr -v from terminal. I can't make head nor tail of the print out so reaching out to the Mate community.
Here is the print out

Boot into Windows.

Navigate to the Control Panel and select 'Power Options. '
Choose 'Choose what the power buttons do. '
Click on 'Change settings that are currently unavailable. '
Under 'Shutdown settings,' uncheck the 'Turn on fast startup' box.

Reboot, fast boot should be off now.
