System won't boot---SOLVED

Did an install from a USB to an 32g eMMC drive on a Lenovo Ideapad 110s.
I choose to use the full drive and had grub install to the same drive.  The installer reported it completed.  On reboot grub was not displayed, rather it was a bios screen allowing me to select the eMMC drive.  Selecting it just went into a loop.

I had previously modified the bios to do a legacy install.

I hope someone has some ideas.

I re-enabled uefi, removed legacy boot option and secure boot feature in the bios and used gparted to delete the partition.  Then I re-installed from a live USB.  On a reboot everything worked correctly.

Re: System won't boot---SOLVED

It seems to be a crapshoot when installing to an eMMC in my opinion as not all laptops support booting from an eMMC/SD card.
