Trying to Install KickSecure on old Lenovo laptop and getting dropped into Grub

My friend has an old Lenovo laptop with 8 GB RAM and I am trying to install Kicksecure. I burn a USB live and then after, instead of booting, it drops into Grub.

When I go into the Bios, it lists the USB as Linpus light.

I have seen others have similar problems for other linux distros and Lenovo laptops and it showing Linpus light with no solution

I think that Lenovo may have done some shitty trick to the bios to make it harder to not install Windows. Secureboot is not on. Any suggestion on how to proceed?

If this is a UEFI system, you might be able to resolve the issue following the steps here:
