Idk how long i wait the fix but i like inform daily builds without uefi mode boots and i see all ok. No corruption or anything.
If i use uefi mode i get black screen with monitor on or only purple screen. gfxpayload on boot dosent help. Linux itself work in backround it loads fine.
Only solution in uefi mode is only use PCI old videocard to get it installed and then install catalyst.
I'm trying to dual boot Ubuntu 12.04 (or 12.10) with Windows 8 on a new Sony Vaio, but have run into some problems :)
Specifically, my problems seem to come from choosing UEFI or Legacy as the Bootmode in the BIOS.
Here is what I have found so far:
Windows 8 needs to boot using UEFI, and doesn't work in Legacy mode
Ubuntu (both 12.04 and 12.10) needs to boot using Legacy, and won't boot (at l
Configuration:
MBB: ASRock X79 Extreme6
- Win 7 installed on a INTEL 40GB SSD (GPT partitioned)
- Ubuntu 14.04 on a CORSAIR 30GB SSD (Ext4 and SWAP)
Windows has been installed previously in UEFI mode, using 3 partitions (GPT) and works fine if left alone.

I just brought a new Toshiba Satallite M840 with pre-loaded Windows 8.
I'm trying to properly install Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS 64-bit PC (AMD64) with the alternate install CD ".iso" on a lenovo Thinkpad X220.
Default Hard Disk (with a pre-installed version of Windows 7) has been replaced with a brand new SSD.
The UEFI BIOS of the lenovo Thinkpad X220 is set to "UEFI Boot only" & "USB UEFI BIOS Support" is enabled (I'm using an external USB DVD reader to perform Ubunt
I am trying to install Ubuntu 12.10 with a LiveUSB. I have windows 8 preinstalled and am trying to dual boot on UEFI.
I've recently purchased a Lenovo T430, and sadly when configuring it, I forgot all about the Linux UEFI Fiasco, and kept the default option of pre-installing Windows 8.
I'm able to disable secure-boot, but what I would like to know is whether I need to install Ubuntu in UEFI or Legacy Mode.
Hello people,
I built a new computer capable of UEFI. Just like I always did, I installed windows 7 64-bit first, hoping that Fedora will pick it and make a line in boot menu.
So I installed windows in UEFI mode. Then put Fedora 17 64-bit and also made sure that I start it in UEFI mode via bios boot shortcut.
From LinuxBSDos.com.Dual-booting Windows 8 and a Linux distribution in UEFI or EFI-compatible mode can be a very frustrating and unpredictable adventure. You just never know how the system will boot or whether it will even boot at all.
I have a computer that I built (assembled) using a motherboard with UEFI firmware. By default, it boots in Legacy mode.
