Hello, I want to replace my (slightly broken due to my carelessness) Ubuntu installation with Arch Linux. I already have a functioning dual-boot configuration, with GRUB installed, so I figured that I may not need to perform all the steps detailed on various tutorials for setting up an Arch+Win7 dual-boot configuration, such as partitioning and installing GRUB.
I recently reinstalled Arch onto my laptop (Lenovo Thinkpad t520) and have been having problems with Grub. For the last week I've been having trouble getting it to run grub at boot at all, only being able to run windows 7 by flagging it as the bootable drive. The other day I finally got it to boot into grub, and from grub I can boot into Arch.
Hello,I might be in the wrong section, but I got a serious issue I can´t track down!Lets start with the symptoms:on BIOS-HW-initialisation I get randomly a S.M.A.R.T.
Hi, I purchased a new laptop and I created a partition with Windows 8 (default OS on laptop) and another partition where I want to install Arch Linux.When I tried to install Arch Linux not boot from CD. After searching in Google I downloaded the latest Arch Linux ISO (2012-12-01) and tried again.This time CD started without problems but when I used cfdisk showed an error with GPT partition.
I dual-booted a friend's computer with Win7/Ubuntu 12.04 LTS recently. The machine came with Win7 pre-installed (read: the golden rule of installing Windows first was upheld). Regardless, after installing Ubuntu, the bootloader gave no option to boot into Ubuntu naturally; it abutomatically booted into Win7.
I dual boot my Arch with Ubuntu and I have not installed Grub from Arch. Ubuntu-Grub handles my boots. I have just set Arch as my default boot.
Hi,I searched quite a lot, but could not find anything related to this problem. I didn't want a 3rd day going into trial-and-error method of getting around this. So, here goes...I have an Arch installation running very well on my HDD. I recently bought an SSD and installed Windows 7 on it.
Hi,I have a GRUB-BIOS systemd based Arch/LXDE fresh installation (latest 2/2013 image).About 2 out of 3 times I boot the system freezes after displaying that the /dev/sda2 (my root) is clean.Yet, about 1 out of 3 trials, boot completes without problems.In either case I don't add any parameters, and just wait for Grub's timeout.The same happen with the Linux fallback as well.T
Yup, I bought and added a new drive.Now I can boot my NEW arch, my OLD arch (different installations, differents drives) after changing some lines on my OLD /etc/fstab (my OLD root used to be /dev/sda2, now it is /dev/sdb2, and it boots fine).I was just asking, is it possible to make my windows (used to be sda1, now on sdb1) boot, even if I need to change some windows config files, as I did with m
