   It was installed in MBR   
   Maybe I should try with grub2 instead of the default.

   Yes, but you cannot explicitly disable secure boot   
   only choose between options: UEFI mode and other OS

   Yes, I think I have set all that but it's hard to   
   know for sure that it has effect.

   Yes, I have only one hd installed so far   
   and it can be selected for boot directly from   
   the BIOS. There are some other options   
   "SATA mode": IDE or AHCPI  (I'm using IDE)   
   There is also an option for "S.M.A.R.T status   
   check" under SATA options, which is enabled
