I am new to Linux, currently using Linux Mint. I enjoyed it so much that I decided to ditch Windows altogether. So I formatted my entire hard disk and installed Linux Mint. I got a warning during the installation that I should install a EFI boot partition but I ignored it.
Upon reboot it couldn't locate the OS so I went into BIOS and switched from UEFI to Legacy.

I was finally able to boot Mint but upon hitting suspend, it crashed and said "Boot script table modified" and shut down. I figured using "boot repair" would do the trick, so I tried to boot from my USB key but every time (even in UEFI mode) it goes to "(initramfs) prompts/busybox" and waits for an input. So I can't even get to the LIVE USB to run "boot repair".

I know I messed up really bad. Does anyone know what's going on?

The solution is simple, go to your boot menu when starting your computer and change the option to Legacy Boot. This should fix the problem. This occurs while using Ubuntu also.
