IrcsomeBot<TimoSalola> chat works. You can ask for help here but this irc/telegram channel isn't super active so you may have to wait a while before someone replies11:19
IrcsomeBot<karan_soni_8306> Tell me what can i do now to make it dual boot11:21
IrcsomeBot<karan_soni_8306> I tried boot repair command also in kubuntu live environment but in konsole, the command is not found... (re @karan_soni_8306: Hello,11:21
IrcsomeBot<karan_soni_8306> I wanted to install kubuntu and i downloaded the latest iso file, mounted it on a 6 gb partition on my jard drive using UUI..11:21
IrcsomeBot<karan_soni_8306> I also created a 10 gb space to install kubuntu.11:21
IrcsomeBot<karan_soni_8306> Then i saw a guide to install it and it said to make a 1000 mb partition for boot loader with mount /boot11:21
IrcsomeBot<karan_soni_8306> And the main 9 gb portion with root directory /.11:21
IrcsomeBot<TimoSalola> can you share a screenshot from kde partition manager or some other tool which shows the partitions you have?11:23
BluesKajHi all11:36
IrcsomeBot<TimoSalola> On a kubuntu only system you'd typically have a /boot/efi EFI system partition formatted as fat32 and an ext4 partition which contains everything else. Separate home folders and so on are an option, but they aren't needed.11:43
IrcsomeBot<TimoSalola> On a windows only system you'd have C as NTFS and a system reserved NTFS section.11:43
IrcsomeBot<TimoSalola> This https://www.tecmint.com/install-ubuntu-alongside-with-windows-dual-boot/ tutorial seems fairly solid on how to install ubuntu alongside windows when you first have a working windows installation. Dual booting kubuntu should be near identical. (re @karan_soni_8306: Tell me what can i do now to make it dual boot or atleast run kubuntu fully11:44
IrcsomeBot<TimoSalola> I tried boot repair command also in kubuntu live environment but in konsole, the command is not found...)11:44
IrcsomeBot<TimoSalola> What happens if you boot the computer? Can you get it to boot to the boot manager and does it show windows or linux as bootable operating systems?11:45
IrcsomeBot<karan_soni_8306> When i boot my laptop, whether in any option from boot options or direct, the screen of try or install kubuntu,safe graphics, oem ...etc is shown12:04
IrcsomeBot<karan_soni_8306> However I can access files from other drives eg. Local disc e,f in kubuntu live environment12:04
IrcsomeBot<karan_soni_8306> I think the problem is about boot loader or that grub menu.... and I've also installed it twice already on the same partition12:04
IrcsomeBot<karan_soni_8306> But after each installation the same screen of try or install appears (re @TimoSalola: What happens if you boot the computer? Can you get it to boot to the boot manager and does it show windows or linux as bootable operating systems?)12:04
IrcsomeBot<karan_soni_8306> Ok i will try following that tutorial, currently I'm not at home12:05

IrcsomeBot<TimoSalola> linux grub should look somewhat like this.  If you are getting a menu with options such as try or install kubuntu, your system might be booting from the kubuntu installer media, so most likely the CD or USB drive you used to install the OS : https://irc-attachments.kde.org/9272981f/file_77306.jpg12:09
IrcsomeBot<karan_soni_8306> No i don't see this menu12:21
IrcsomeBot<karan_soni_8306> Is it called grub menu.?12:21
IrcsomeBot<karan_soni_8306> And yah i didn't used cd or usb, i installed through a partition in hard drive using universal usb installer.. (re @TimoSalola: )12:21
IrcsomeBot<TimoSalola> yep that's grub and at least with the dual boot systems I've used the system first boots into grub where you have to select which OS you want to boot into. It's similar to a motherboard boot menu12:25
IrcsomeBot<TimoSalola> Depending on how your bios works, it might see the on disk installer as the first boot option and just boot from it by default. If you can get to the motherboards boot menu, you might see if there are other boot options available. If you can use boot menu to get into kubuntu or windows, you could then remove the installer partition12:30
IrcsomeBot<karan_soni_8306> I have also done this before when i tried other os like prime and phoenix, but at that time i saw this same menu for them12:30
IrcsomeBot<karan_soni_8306> But in linux this is happening that boot is done by that disc in which kubuntu js mounted (re @TimoSalola: yep that's grub and at least with the dual boot systems I've used the system first boots into grub where you have to select which OS you want to boot into. It's similar to a motherboard boot menu)12:30
IrcsomeBot<karan_soni_8306> I have dell Inspiron laptop12:31
IrcsomeBot<karan_soni_8306> Can i do it through pressing F12 for boot options or F2 (re @TimoSalola: Depending on how your bios works, it might see the on disk installer as the first boot option and just boot from it by default. If you can get to the motherboards boot menu, you might see if there are other boot options available. If you can use boot menu to get into kubuntu or windows, you could then remove the installer partition)12:31
IrcsomeBot<karan_soni_8306> And at least once i enter windows I'll delete that partition and try through USB (re @TimoSalola: Depending on how your bios works, it might see the on disk installer as the first boot option and just boot from it by default. If you can get to the motherboards boot menu, you might see if there are other boot options available.

IrcsomeBot<TimoSalola> The boot menu button is usually one of the F keys, f2, f10 or f12 are common, perhaps even esc in some cases. You can either just mash them and see if you can get to boot menu or you can try to look up for laptop specific instructions from somewhere. And if you accidentally end in the bios, you can usually find a boot to boot menu option in the bios12:34
IrcsomeBot<TimoSalola> in the best case scenario, boot menu would look something like this. So you'd have an option for kubuntu(could be listed as ubuntu as well) and windows and perhaps some hard disks or devices.If they show up, test that both kubuntu and windows boot options work and then boot into bios and set ubuntu as the primary boot option in the bios. When you've done this, the system should always boot into grub by default. And you no longer have to us12:42
IrcsomeBot<karan_soni_8306> Yes i have done that12:58
IrcsomeBot<karan_soni_8306> I see almost 6 with same name "UEFI OS"12:58
IrcsomeBot<karan_soni_8306> But after i installed kubuntu, i saw the last 2 name changed with something like ipc4 and ipv6 (some long name)12:58
IrcsomeBot<karan_soni_8306> I tried both of them but the same screen on try or install... Appeared12:58
IrcsomeBot<karan_soni_8306> I will send you image of that (re @TimoSalola: The boot menu button is usually one of the F keys, f2, f10 or f12 are common, perhaps even esc in some cases.

Guest5hi guys22:54
Guest5Do you guys have Kubuntu devices enrolled in your canonical landscape environment? All the ones we enrolled before have been Ubuntu 22.04 and 24.04, but never Kubuntu. It looks like we got the device registered, however I cannot push a single script to it from Landscape. Very simple installation scripts, though they're all required to be pushed22:56
Guest5through Landscape and be run as root. I've never had this problem on other ones, other than when I'd have to increase the wait time so a script would not timeout22:56
