| jsylvis | Hello - I'm trying to setup Kubuntu alongside an existing Gentoo install. I already have an EFI partition with grub I'd like to just extend - is there an easy way to do this? | 01:07 |
|---|---|---|
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> Ummm, you want to install one of the "easiest to install" OS's along side one of the most difficult OS' and you have already installed the hard one. | 01:17 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> Not sure of the question, but an EFI partition can be shared across multiple distro's. During install, ensure to select the existing EFI partition as one of the install partitions and Kubuntu will now be the primary boot device. | 01:18 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> You will need to update the boot priority in Kubuntu or fix it Gentoo if you want Gentoo to be the primary boot OS. | 01:19 |
| jsylvis | I selected the existing EFI partition and waited out the install; a quick mount of it indicates nothing obvious has changed. Grub config still present and unmodified, etc. Is that expected? I suppose I'm not entirely familiar with how the EFI partition acts as an entrypoint. | 01:21 |
| jsylvis | I'm also not really sure I care which of those two is the "primary" as long as they're both bootable | 01:27 |
| jsylvis | I had thought they could both use the same Grub install but that doesn't seem to be quite as easy to pull off via automagic config generation | 01:28 |
| jsylvis | I got a lucky google result - https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/335247/two-linux-distributions-grub-does-not-detect-other-one - sounds reasonable, going to give it a whirl. Thanks for the tip. | 01:30 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> I was trying to find a snapshot of the Disk Setup step of the install showing the /boot/efi partition selected and set to efi boot.... | 01:31 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> Ubuntu also has a grub boot repair utility that is very good at auto correcting grub issues. | 01:32 |

| p5 | hi | 16:50 |
| p5 | i heard ubuntu 20.10 had 150+ restricted packages installed by default...is this policy the same with kubuntu (and perhaps other official derivatives)? | 16:51 |
| p5 | or can kubuntu choose to minimize non-free/nonlibre packages compared to ubuntu itself? | 16:52 |
