[00:20] <nano> Good day. I have done a clean installation of kubuntu on a system with EFI, kubuntu is mounted on a ssd sata and windows with the EFI are installed on an nvme disk with optane, the problem is that grub is not installed. When restarting the computer goes directly to windows. How can I solve that?

[03:20] <nano> Can anybody help me?
[05:50] <nano> Can anybody help me?
[10:07] <nano> Hey Can anybody help me?
[10:13] <diogenes_> !ask | nano
[10:24] <nano> Hi Doigenes
[10:24] <nano> I have installed Windows 10 with EFI on the main NVME disk with Intel Optane 500gb. In another 500 Gb SSD I have made the partitions to install Kubuntu.
[10:24] <nano> I do all the installation without problem, but when rebooting the computer goes directly to Windows 10 without appearing before GRUB and being able to choose with which system I boot.
[10:24] <nano> I think GRUB does not install or Windows deletes GRUB
[10:24] <nano> How can i fix this?
[10:27] <diogenes_> nano, did you create a fat32 /boot/efi partition for linux? did you disable secure boot?
[10:35] <nano> fat 32 efi exists for windows installation and secure boot is disabled
[10:42] <nano> sda1 for root, sda2 for home and nvme0n1 for GRUB
[10:43] <nano> I think windows erases GRUB
[10:45] <diogenes_> nano, you need to create a separate /boot/efi fat 32 partition for linux.
[10:46] <diogenes_> windows doesn't erase grub unless you do some updates which might overwrite grub.
[10:47] <nano> What can happen then to solve it?
[10:48] <diogenes_> to re-install and partition it correctly.
[10:50] <nano> It's been 2 times that I install it one with GRUB in nvme0n1 and another the grub in sda, but windows always enters without going through the grub before
[10:51] <diogenes_> you can re-install million of times, without a linux /boot/efi partition nothing will work.
[10:52] <nano> Ok, how do I make the linux efi / boot partition and how do I use it?
[10:56] <diogenes_> when you reach partitioning in the installation process, you just create: 1) 30 GB ext4 partition, mountpoint / 2) (optional) many GB, ext4 partition, mountpoint /home 3) at least 4 GB partition, swap aream, 4) 300 MB, vfat (fat32) partition, mountpoint /boot/efi, the installer will take care of the rest.
[11:03] <nano> I already have all the partitions excep
[11:03] <nano> I already have all the partitions except the last one, step 4 linux / boot / efi, according to what you write, should I make another boot / efi partition for linux apart from the boot / efi partition for windows and to the end?
[11:05] <diogenes_> nano, first of all you create a chunk of free space, about 40 Gb, then from that free space you start creating the partitions, then proceed with the installation.
[11:06] <diogenes_> if you create 40 GB free space, then you won't need /home partition, if you want a /home partition, make more free space then.
[11:07] <diogenes_> nano, and i'd advice you do that free spaceright from windows, using easeus partition manager.
[11:07] <diogenes_> that's much easier.
[11:08] <nano> of root space I gave 70 Gb, for home I gave 140 gb, I do not need swap, I have more than enough ram, the only thing I did not do is the linux boot / efi partition. I had no experience before with uefi I had only installed with bios
[11:10] <diogenes_> then as soon as you reach partioning, remove all thos partitions and re-create them, or, resize one of them and re-install grub.
[11:10] <nano> My only doubt is the grub, which had never happened to me not to be installed
[11:12] <nano> What is the reason to erase all partitions? I only have a problem with GRUB, and I still don't know if I should create another partition for Linux with Fat32 or what to do
[11:13] <diogenes_> :) ok, forget all i said, have a nice day and good luck.
[11:15] <nano> You didn't explain me well but thanks for your time, have a nice day
[11:15] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[15:02] <BluesKaj> !community
[15:02] <BluesKaj> !ubuntu community
[15:12] <magic_ninja> can kubuntu be updated to the testing repos?
[15:12] <magic_ninja> I'm wanting to change over to 19.10 a bit early for optimus support via binaries.
[15:15] <marco-parillo-M1> Yes, people do sed their sources. I have not done it in a while. Since I do not have all that much user data, I find it easier to just install from the daily ISO and copy over my data.
[15:15] <BluesKaj> magic_ninja, 19.10 will be released officially on Oct 17th
[15:23] <BluesKaj> magic_ninja, if you don't want to wait you can change your sources.list like so: sudo sed -i 's/disco/eoan/' /etc/apt/sources.list , then sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade, if you're currently on 18.10. Make sure you update and upgrade your packages in 18.10 first
[15:23] <magic_ninja> I'm on 19.04
[15:24] <magic_ninja> Yea, I don't want to wait, I just wanted to make sure that there wouldn't be an issue with that.
[15:24] <BluesKaj> oops, I meant 19.04 ;-0
[15:24] <magic_ninja> I'm going to clonezilla my drive too
[15:24] <magic_ninja> with a pair of ssd it only takes 5 minutes, then another 10 to restore.
[15:26] <BluesKaj> magic_ninja, , or you could try sudo do-release-upgrade -d rather than changing your sources.list
[15:31] <magic_ninja> BluesKaj, eh, I think I would rather update my sources to eoan and give that a shot.
[15:32] <BluesKaj> magic_ninja, well, if the sudo do-release-upgrade -d doesn't work there's no harm done
[15:33] <BluesKaj> I recall using it successfully
[19:32] <magic_ninja_work> so, the upgrade to 19.10 didn't render my system unbootable.
[19:32] <magic_ninja_work> That is a plus.
[19:33] <magic_ninja_work> the nvidia drivers isn't quite install correctly, though.
[20:20] <magic_ninja_work> does 19.10 actually remove support for i386 libs? Seems the 435 drivers depend on some that aren't there
[20:36] <magic_ninja_work> got it all worked out. Lets see if the 435 drivers broke stuff.
