It happened again right now, on another G40-30 Lenovo laptop, running
Windows 10 and Ubuntu 16.04, both in legacy mode. As soon as we inserted
an Ubuntu 17.10 live USB, the boot setup had the USB listed twice. One
in legacy and another as EFI (I repeat, the OSs on that laptop are
installed in legacy mode). By selecting to boot the live USB which was
listed as EFI, it booted fine. We did not install the new OS, but after
shutting down the laptop, the BIOS refused to save any changes and also
refused to read that same USB flash drive in boot options. There has to
be something very seriously wrong here.
