The boot order is correct!
Currently it tries to restart aborts and restarts againĀ 
When I press f12 for boot manager also appear the two hard drives, but it does not matter what I select ......

I suspect it is because of the merging of the two disks from the core. Because my partitions do not start with dev/sda or so but with
dev/mappen/.........../hdd0

So I have now got LM installed.
I have struggled 2 days with sobering but also good results.
The Acer Aspire S7 has a RAID array of 2 hard drives.
But this RAID is not readable or changeable by LINUX!
It took me 2 days to find out ....
This RAID is only resolvable with a WIN reinstallation.
But you have to change the setup mode from RAID to AHCI in the BIOS and switch off the Sekure BIOS.
Afterwards the association is dissolved with the new installation of Win!
After the WIN installation either as dual or as singel LM can be installed ....
