Thanks. I have similar problems with Samsung 530U when changing distro.
I removed the drive from Samsung, plugged to another computer trough
usb/sata adapter and wiped it clean. I can't even boot from Rescue CD
if UEFI has valid xyz distro entries and appropriate partitions on disk.

I will try efibootmgr to solve it next time.
