| bikram | is showing after I installed ubuntu over windows 7 | 14:38 |
| bikram | windows 7 is no more showing in the boot menu | 14:38 |
| bikram | does anyone have an idea what might be wrong. | 14:39 |
| bikram | I installed ubuntu using / on the ext4 rather than the windows drive | 14:39 |
| lasagna | I'm trying to install the latest release of ubuntu, it installs, and then when it goes to do a reboot it gets stuck on a "Loading Operating System..." screen. | 19:44 |
| lasagna | Not sure what to try next to actually get it going | 19:44 |
| bioterror | !nomodeset | 19:53 |
| ubot2` | A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 19:53 |
| lasagna | I was able to do that when I was doing the initial install. When I'm rebooting where/what do I do to set that? I can't find anything that will let me edit the commands.... | 19:56 |
| bioterror | you have to press left shift right after BIOS | 19:58 |
| bioterror | and it will prompt you the GRUB | 19:58 |
| bioterror | then you edit it with the e button | 19:58 |
| bioterror | and this nomodeset after ro quiet | 19:58 |
| lasagna | I've tried that. It still takes me to the "loading operating system..." screen | 19:58 |
| bioterror | should not | 19:58 |
| bioterror | you have to be faster! | 19:58 |
| lasagna | *laugh* Let me try it a few more times | 19:58 |

| lasagna | is holding it down too much or pressing it too early an issue? | 20:03 |
| bioterror | I dunno | 20:23 |
| bioterror | I just booted a moment ago to memtest86+ | 20:23 |
| bioterror | my kubuntu machine was unresponsive second time in a week | 20:23 |
| bioterror | *under | 20:24 |
| lasagna | ok. thanks for your help. Maybe I'll try installing a different version or something just to see if that works. | 20:31 |
| bioterror | no it wont | 20:35 |
| bioterror | as you need this nomodeset, atleat it looks like so | 20:35 |
| bioterror | you can also boot livecd, mount the hard drive and edit some grub lines | 20:36 |
