I am trying to use EFI Shell version 2.50 [5.12] to install Linux on a windows notebook. map -r gives a list of devices, but I am not sure if the ubuntu usb-stick is among them. The problem is that mount command returns the error 'mount' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file, so I cant proceed and check which device might be the usb stick.

I've never heard that this is even possible in EFI shell. Unless you're a very experienced sysadmin I suspect you'll want to be in the graphical or at least interactive installer which comes with every "live CD" these days. – l0b0 – 2019-06-09T10:24:05.297
I thought that the point of EFI shell was to execute other boot loaders manually. – ttxtea – 2019-06-09T19:29:28.187
What EFI shell are you using and where did you get it? Did you download it from somewhere or was it supplied by your notebook manufacturer?
