http://askubuntu.com – I am currently working on a MAC that is dual booting Ubuntu 10.04 32-bit with MAC OS X (Lion I think) 64-bit via Refit; I never use the OS X partition because I can't stand the UI on Macs, my question is, if I were to try installing Ubuntu 12 64-bit onto this system, using another partition, would I use Refit to have three options when the machine loads up, or would I just use the pre-existing Ubu (HowTos)

Email this pagehttp://askubuntu.com – Hello I want to install Ubuntu 12.10 on an UEFI machine with manual partitioning. Do I have to disable "Secure Boot"? Do I have to create a 2nd ESP (EFI System Partition) for Ubuntu? Do I have to give it the boot flag? Do I have to set mount point /boot/efi? Do I have to install grub on /dev/sda? I am used to BIOS installation where: /dev/sda1 100 MB Windows 7 hidden System Partition /dev/sd (HowTos)
Email this pagehttp://askubuntu.com – I installed 12.10 on my 11-inch mid-'11 Air without a hitch. I removed Unity and installed Cinnamon in its place. I purged every Unity-related package from the system. Today, the kernel updated and broke my machine. I can't get to the GRUB menu and I am told that the computer is running in low-graphics mode, even though I can't do anything with the options presented by the dialogues. (HowTos)
Email this pagehttp://ubuntuforums.org – Hi all. I was wondering if anybody could offer me advice on a little dilemma I have? I have a 500GB HDD and have partitioned it and have the following OS's installed as follows: 400 ish GB for Windows 7 64 Bit, 60GB for Ubuntu 11.10 and 20GB for Windows XP 32 Bit. XP was the last OS I installed. This somehow wiped out the GRUB 2 Bootloader. (Hardware)
