Using a live linux iso made with unetbootin, the aspire a515-48m gets as far as the grub menu, but refuses to boot linux from grub menu, from grub command line, and from uefi shell (running the .efi file directly) with supervisor password set in bios, with secure boot enabled (and efi file selected), or disabled, no difference.

I tried over 10 different linux distro iso images (including debian, ubuntu, altlinux, blackarch, opensuse, kali, parrot, gnoppix and others), and made a live usb using unetbootin, on 4 different usb sticks, and they cannot go past grub; removing quiet splash in the grub menu command to make it print debug does not help, as it fails before starting to print any debug.
