=== jeanaustinr is now known as jeanaustinr|x [01:49] I have a question about a dual boot install of 13.04 alongside win7. Win7 has been installed under UEFI mode, when I go through the install do I need to specifically make a /boot partition or is that superfluous since the installer will already be creating the necessary boot entry in the EFI partition? [01:49] You'll need a 64bit version of Ubuntu, and there's a nice guide at... [01:49] !uefi [01:49] UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware, it is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI [01:55] I already read the guide there. I understand that I have to select the device for bootloader installation (aka /dev/sda) and the installer will make the relevant entry on the EFI partition. However many of the install guides I read that didn't make mention of EFI typically say to make separate partitions for / , /boot, /home, and swap. Should I still create a separate /boot partition, or is that superfluous and all relevant [01:59] Well, some people do, it all depends on what you like. But no, that area is for kernels, not EFI stuff. [02:04] OK, I suspected as much. So the EFI entry essentially is for the benefit of the boot manager and then redirects to /boot whose contents than are used by the bootloader (correct me if I'm wrong). Guides that specifically targeted EFI installs made no mention of /boot just /boot/efi [02:04] Hence why I was confused === jeanaustinr is now known as jeanaustinr|x [13:11] Hey guys, quick question. [13:12] I can't for the life of me install Ubuntu, because my monitor goes "out of range" whenever I click install. Is there a way to manually set the resolution that will be used during the install? === jeanaustinr is now known as jeanaustinr|x === elacheche_anis is now known as LunaPersa === LunaPersa is now known as elacheche
