nearlyNonso,02:00
nearlyNonI have Windows 10 installed02:01
nearlyNonand gparted doesn't seem to recognize the partition as existing, it just views the hard drive as a huge unallocated block02:01
nearlyNonI've been looking up tutorials but they're all wildly inconsistent and none of them are for windows 10 and I'm not sure how well they'd apply02:01
nearlyNonhow can I install Xubuntu on the empty unallocated space I have next to the windows partition02:02
nearlyNonokay reading up on it it may be because of fastboot but I'm 90% sure I disabled that but I'll check then ask again if it doesn't work still02:16

nearlyNonwell that didn't do anything02:37
nearlyNonstill can't find the partitions on Xubuntu...02:37
Unit193UEFI?  You boot 64bit Xubuntu in UEFI mode?02:38
Unit193!uefi02:38
ubottuUEFI 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/UEFI02:38
nearlyNonI'm booting a live CD of 64x xubuntu02:39
nearlyNonhow do I boot a live CD in UEFI02:39
nearlyNon:?02:39
nearlyNonoh02:40
nearlyNonI'll go into the BIOS settings I think I messed a thing up there02:40
nearlyNonit says legacy on the HDD02:44
nearlyNonand if I set the boot mode to UEFI it shows no boot devices at all02:45
nearlyNonstill nothing despite disabling fast boot and disabling win8OS specialized loading, the boot is set to Legacy and the HDD doesn't show up as an EFI boot device02:54
nearlyNonit just shows up as 931.51 GiB of unallocated nothingness, and I disabled fast boot and did a proper shutdown02:55
nearlyNonit IS booting the disk in UEFI mode02:57
nearlyNonfor some reason in file manager it lets me access my windows files by clicking on a "913 GB volume" on the desktop02:59
nearlyNonbut it still doesn't seem to detect that the volume has partitions02:59
drcnearlyNon: It's pretty obvious you're not going to get an answer in this channel  tonight (and I personally have no knowledge of Windows 10, fast boot or UEFI), and it doesn't seem to be a Xubuntu-specific problem.  I'd ask in #ubuntu (or one of the other/larger 'buntu channels)...more eyeballs there.03:03
drcMaybe even one of the windows channels.03:04
nearlyNon_mmkay then03:05
Unit193Err, right.  #ubuntu is a good idea.03:07
nearlyNon_I've gone to #ubuntu, no clue if it'll turn up anything yet03:10
nearlyNon_so far all I've figured out is that the drive is definitely MBR03:19
CountryfiedLinuxIf I add the Numix PPA and bring in the circle icons and plymouth will it conflict with the officially supported numix gtk and icon themes that are preinstalled? I was gonna remove the preinstalled ones first but it says it will also remove xubuntu-setting xubuntu-artwork and xubuntu-desktop? Or can this be avoided if I just simply remove the preinstalled Numix theme folders?04:40
