owner_I am trying to get the dual boot option going it works fine with grub first go around then gone back to windows boot loader01:57
owner_I suppose I could put ubuntu into the windows 10 boot loader somehow.01:57
owner_could someone please send me an instruction01:58
owner_I think there was a way to rewrite the bcd with the linux boot in a program under windows but I think it was depreciated with uefi01:58

fareastI am trying to dual boot someone help guide me I am pretty tech savy.20:45
fareastwin 10 uefi and ubuntu uefi don't play, if I go ubuntu legacy will I have better chance and keeping the bios from borking?20:45
mr-richI haven't dual booted in 20 years ...20:46
fareastI am even running on separate drives20:46
fareastwell congrats20:46
fareastI don't just work on linux machines20:46
fareastI use them all20:46
fareasteven android20:46
mr-richYou could try VBox instead ...20:47
mr-richrun both at the same time ... sorta20:47
fareastwell yeah20:47
fareastbut as far as native hardware running and not vm you have to boot it.20:47
fareastI am trying to unleash the animal.20:48
mr-richLaptop?20:48
fareastno20:48
fareastworkstation20:49
fareastI just can't believe someone hasn't made a hack to bypass the ms efi write back to the bios yet20:50
fareastI am going to google it.20:50
mr-richNever tried to dual boot on uefi ... heard it can be nasty ...20:50
fareastyeah well ms drops their lock in there.20:50
fareastas soon as their os gains control of your bios20:50
fareastonly way of getting back to linux is cmos reset to factory setup20:50
mr-richBoot Ununtu and run Win10 as a VM ... problem solved ... :)20:51
fareastluckily i have a button that does that on the back of the case20:51
fareastno that isn't a solution20:51
fareastI need full headroom for both os20:51
fareastdepending on what is going on.20:51
mr-richis for me ... :)20:51
mr-richI have 4 computers ... Only 1 runs M$ ... a cheap laptop ... 2 run Linux and 1 Mac ....20:52
mr-richBill can byte me ... :)20:52
fareastoh god20:54
fareasthere is the solution20:54
fareastset a password in your bios so ms can't access it20:54
fareastsimple20:54
fareastimma try it and report back20:54
fareastnothing works21:04
fareastms is just evil21:04
fareastyou can't dual boot uefi at least not on this system21:05
fareastsomeone said lenovo had a lockout with the password21:05
fareastprolly cause lenovo bios is built for nasa21:05
fareastand they run fedora21:05
fareastas far as using this bcdedit /set "{bootmgr}" path \EFI\ubuntu\grubx64.efi21:08
fareastwhich changes the windows boot to point to grub that just gives you a black screen now21:08
fareastlike they have killed it with a if then statement or something21:09
fareastso the only solution would be boot legacy then change back to uefi if going back into windows21:12
fareastwell well21:12
