(4) Plug in the USB stick, power on the NUC and hit F2 for boot menu.
(5) Now you should see TWO USB stick entries in the boot menu. Choose the one which says "UEFI"
(6) Follow installation instructions.
NOTE: If I skipped step (5) I was still able to finish the ubuntu installation, but it was not possible to boot afterwards.
Hope you succeed! I am very happy with the setup.
Ok thanks. Going to try now. Are you using wifi or ethernet? Ethernet appears to be broken with mini/server ISOs. As a workaround I'm using wifi module from my laptop.
I was using ethernet .
Finally got Ubuntu installed! So the mini.iso will not work with UEFI and the NIC hangs when booted in BIOS. x64 Server ISO and UEFI is the way to go. Also my USB3 flash drive didn't want to work. Installer kept saying it couldn't mount CD. Anyway going to continue with the minimal install. Thanks for the help. This NUC is very picky so hopefully everything else goes smoothly.
