I've installed a new SSD. I'm trying to do a fresh install of mint mate.
When I restart it says OS not found.
In the live version before install the laptop is showing the SSD, so that is not the issue.
When trying to install again in the live version it shows that there is already an installed version.
Online guides aren't much help. There are references to making sure the machine is UEFI enabled. Tbh I don't really understand what this means. There is no UEFI / EFI partition option.
Also all of the guides seem to assume that there should be a UEFI / EFI partition option, which then means I'm not sure how to partition... which then means I can make sure that incorrect partioning is the cause of the OS not being found. I tried disableing Legacy OS, but that didn't really seem to help.
I've been going round in circles and I'm not really sure what to do. Is there something in the boot order I'm missing?

Any ideas?
