No OS found on boot

Couple things..
1st if this is a UEFI bios - disable (set to legacy) and turn off secureboot
May not hurt to confirm you downloaded a complete file by checking the hash..


Then assuming the 500gb hard drive is a secondary drive is this an external USB? If so ok to leave unmounted.
The internal "primary partition" that has been DBAN'd is it formatted? It will need to be - ext4 should suffice - this will be "/"
Are you planning on swap (assuming so) you'll want to set up as well.


Both formatting ("/" &swap) can be done in LiveDVD or during install.


Boot to LiveDVD allow Live environment to boot to desktop and click the install Linux Lite (Using something else - or - use gparted to set up disks)


If choosing to do during install, choose the "Something Else" option this uses gparted within the install
When setting up partition in gparted choose the appropriate file system: "linux-swap" for swap and "ext4" there should be a drop down or selector to set as "/"


Install should go as normal I wouldn't select any extras, encryption or updates - confirm all installs.
Once installed you should be prompted to remove disk and reboot.. (LEAVE UEFI turned off - you will have to leave in this state)


Reboot and see if LL loads.
