The laptop seems to be only able to boot in UEFI mode (ie: There's no "Enable legacy booting" or "Compatible Support Module on/off" setting): The only UEFI related option I could find was "secure boot" which I've tried both enabled and disabled (though more extensively tried with that setting disabled). I could boot a systemRescueCD from that USB stick. Comparing both images, I can see that running parted's print command against the debian-installer iso shows a strange result: root@debian-cyr:/root# parted debian-bullseye-DI-alpha2-amd64-netinst.iso GNU Parted 3.3 Using /root/debian-bullseye-DI-alpha2-amd64-netinst.iso Welcome to GNU Parted!
