i have a problem, i have dual boot system with windows 7 and ubuntu. i decided to try out linux mint. but after a while i removed it by deleting it´s partition. when i restarted, the bootloader didn´t work anymore. i reinstalled linux mint so that i could use my pc again. but i really want to remove mint from my system. is there a way to delete mint and still be able to boot in to ubuntu ?
I am a new user of Fedora, switching from Linux Mint.
Here is a little back story. I was getting a little tired of my Linux Mint partition. I have had a dual boot since I got my machine, I have been able to switch between Windows 7 and Ubuntu (my original partition). When I switched to Mint, I had no trouble dual booting the system. I then wanted to switch to Debian.
I've currently got a 8GB system disk and two 1TB RAID 1 (software) disks.
Due to a corruption with the 8GB system disk, I'd like to repatition my RAID 1 drive in order to install the OS on this. I'll probally end up making it dual boot Ubuntu and Windows 7.
Ok, I'm a noob, but I have successfully installed Unubtu on my netbook and a dual boot Vista/Ubuntu on my laptop. I'm now trying to get ANY Linux to install on my main system with no luck. I'm new to Linux, but been building and repairing Windows PC's for over a decade.
I have a computer with 2 operating systems dual booted: One is Windows 7 and the other is Ubuntu. My Ubuntu installation is installed within the Windows partition via wubi.exe.
I'm not using grubby, but windows 7's default bootloader.
Hey there, I installed Linux Mint in a dual boot with 12.04. 12.04 was first and then using the partition tool I created a new partition for the Linux Mint, everything loaded up fine and LInux Mint is running smoothly.
Hi.
Have an HP Pavilion dm4 i3 laptop with Windows 7.
I want to dual boot it with Ubuntu 12.04.
Problem is that HP laptop HDD already has 4 partitions:
1. System partition.....199MB
2. C-Drive with W7.....582GB
3. Recovery partition...13.85GB
4. HP Tools partition...104MB
When I try to create an Ubuntu partition, it becomes Unallocated and dead/useless.
Having been a Ubuntu user for a while, I switched to Mint 13 recently. All was well until I had to buy a new PC which had Windows 7 - 64bit installed.
It hasn't taken me long to realise how much I dislike it. So I thought I would dual boot using Mint 14 along side Windows 7. I used the Mint 14- 64 bit iso disc and got as far as the Linux Mint desktop. Everything worked great from the CD.
