** Description changed:

  System Information:
  Fujitsu T901, 16GB Ram, i5-2520M CPU
  BIOS version: 1.15 (latest)
  (laptop manufactured 2011)
  Laptop does not support UEFI
  
  The MD5 sums were verified for the live cd image.
  
  The laptop is currently dual booted with Windows 10, Ubuntu 16.04 with
  separate hard drives.  The live cd (a live USB) was intended to be used
  to install 18.04.
  
  The error message at boot is:
  Could not get fio for li->DeviceHandle: Invalid Parameter
  Failed to find fs: Invalid Parameter
  Failed to load image \EFI\BOOT\grubx64.efi: Invalid Parameter
  start_image() returned Invalid Parameter
  
  The laptop was verified to be BIOS-only.  Under Windows 10,
  C:\Windows\Panther\setupact.log reports "Detected boot environment:
  BIOS".  Under Ubuntu 16.04, "sudo efibootmgr" reports that "EFI
  variables are not supported on this system."
  
  The system will successfully boot into a live cd environment using Knoppix 
8.2, though it does report an error at boot time before proceeding with startup:
  ERROR
  Failed to start loader.efi: (14) Not Found
+ 
+ Subsequent testing has found that the 16.04.5 live cd has the same
+ issue, but the original 16.04 live cd will boot correctly after first
+ displaying the same error message mentioned above, so the bug was
+ introduced sometime during Xenial.
