Hey everyone! Ah so it took forever just to be able to boot off a usb, I ended up disabling fast startup in win 8.1, then in the bios I disabled secure boot, but it turns out I also had to enable legacy booting just for my Lenovo to recognize the USB and boot off of it. (For reference, I changed UEFI enabled to UEFI/Legacy option enabled, which checks for UEFI first, then checks Legacy, so both options are enabled).
Now that I've booted off the LL usb, here is the output of sudo parted -l:
