I have Windows Professional installed on the 1st hard drive with the NTFS file system.
I've just installed UBUNTU 11.10 on a second hard drive but didn't setup the dual boot during installation because I was confused that I might by accident, install on the wrong drive. So before the installation of UBUNTU, I dis-connected the 1st hard drive with WindowsXP from the power supply just to be safe.
Linux newbie/windows intermediate user can't find his second hard drive. I have a dual boot MS Win Vista / Ubuntu 9.10 system.
First hard drive has 3 partitions:
Win NTFS with Vista loaded on it
Ubuntu 9.10 with ext4
A linux swap file.
The 2nd hard drive is visible in windows but I can't find it in Places -> Computer.
hi i have installed ubuntu from a usb stick. it runs successfully from the usb.
when i try to run it direct from the hard drive nothing happens.
i am using an acer aspire 5600. without windows xp.
Hello...
I had ubuntu 11.04 installed on another complete hard drive thats not even connected with my main hard drive. see I Just unhooked my Windows vista hard drive. and put another drive to run ubuntu.
I am new user of Ubuntu and have just installed server 12.04 for use in the school that I am running in Honduras. I have a second hard drive installed for use by the school and teachers. I want to use this second hard drive for file storage. When I type in lshw I can see the drive; logical name: /dev/sdb. The hard drive is formated to NTFS.
I'm running a dual boot of both Ubuntu 11.10 and Windows 7. I have two hard drives, and three partitions: Windows 7 on a dedicated SSD, Ubuntu on the second hard drive, first partition, and then a "Data" partition on that same drive. I have already moved all my linked "libraries" from Windows to the "Data" partition.
Note: The Data partition is a ntfs partition.
Have Ubuntu installed on a 1TB SATA 3 Hard Drive. Also have Windows 7 installed on a separate 1TB SATA 3 Hard Drive. Unplugged Windows Hard Drive before installing Ubuntu as previous versions of Linux always destroyed my Windows installation. What will happen when I plug in the Hard Drive with Windows 7?
I had FOUR NTFS partitions on my drive. One on which Windows 7 was installed (C Drive) and the other contained my data (D Drive) (E Drive) (F drive) .
During Ubuntu installation I chose to install Ubuntu and erase my existing OS. When Ubuntu was installed, I was shocked to see no partition. All my data was gone.
I have a computer with 3 hard drives on it. I have Ubuntu 12.04 on my newest and biggest hard drive and Windows XP on my 2nd hard drive and a old version of Ubuntu 7.04 on the third hard drive.
Everything was working perfectly and I was using Grub to choose between the different systems.
