Ubuntu install and dual Boot with Windows 8 UEFI
- by Jose Maria
i have Ubuntu 12.04 x64 ISO, i load it on a Fat32 USB.
My notebook has a hdd with GPT where i installed Official Win 8 Pro x64 (final versión), I partitioned the whole hdd, previously of win 8 install, and bios is set with UEFI boot.
My BIOS notebook doesn't support SECURE UEFI BOOT.
So I boot the notebook from USB and the Grub runs OK showing whether to run Ubuntu live or to install, but neither one neither two works, when I choose then the screen shows black and nothing happen, it doesn't start/loads the install program.
I've try whether to prepare the usb with unetbootin, or just direct copy/paste the files onto the USB.
I also have try WUBI, but neither with success, it launch an error when ending.
