I recently wanted to install Linux Mint 21.3 Cinnamon on my Lenovo Ideapad 3 and got this error message when I started the Mint installation image. Fortunately I found a thread which explained how to get rid of this message: Linux Mint Forums Just rename grubx64.efi to mmx64.efi on the second partiion of the flash drive and then the Mint installation image boots successfully.

I also found another page with some nice hints when you use Linux on your Ideapad 3. Inparticular there is something you should do to prevent the battery drains quite quickly even though the device was switched off.

See also this page (in German) how to enable hibernation in the power settings menu.
