Something that will be very helpful to you and save you much time is to simply lookup error messages. See where it says "mok.c"? Lookup mok.c error and the first results give you potential answers like disabling secure boot. It's a bit harder with this error since the message isn't really that clear, but it's a good habit to acquire.

Anyway, MOK stands for Machine Owner Key and is related to secure boot. You might want to disable secure boot, though with the limited information you've provided I cannot advise you any further.

Are people that lazy that they can't do basic Google searches???? First freaking hit TURN OFF SECURE BOOT.

we don't know what you did, it's difficult to help.

Generic troubleshooting would be download the system image again, making sure you're getting it directly from Mint's website. Then remount the flash drive and try again.
