Ubuntu Installation :: Grub Not Recognizing Windows 7 / Why Is So?
Jan 29, 2011Background: I dual boot Ubuntu 10.10 and Windows 7. I use an HP laptop.
So here's the deal. My Windows 7 partition got a virus a few weeks back. So, I removed the partition and replaced that partition with a squeaky clean version of Windows 7. Then, since Windows had installed, I could not get grub to work. So I booted up my disk and installed a third partition, which was a second Ubuntu partition, which I plan on deleting. I did this so I could get grub back. Now I have grub back but no Windows. I can mount Windows from both partitions. Then, I modified the /boot/grub/grub.cfg file to add windows. It showed up in grub but when I booted into it, it says "bootmgr not found." I also did an update on grub and that didn't work. I want to be able to boot into that windows partition.
Debian Installation :: Wheezy Installer Not Recognizing USB Keyboard
Jul 6, 2011I am using Wheezy netinstall on a USB stick. The machine has an Intel DH57JG motherboard, USB keyboard, and no optical drive. The installer loads to the initial screen OK, but the keyboard is not active. This problem has been reported for several years and was supposed to be fixed by kernel 2.6.32, yet here it is. What can I do?
One suggestion has been to disable/enable USB legacy support in the BIOS. It is enabled by default. If I disable it, the installer doesn't load. This keyboard works fine on other Linux machines and on the BIOS in this machine. I read there was a problem with Cherry keyboards and the Squeeze installer. This keyboard is not a Cherry but does have Cherry keyswitches.
Debian Installation :: Dual Boot UEFI - Grub Not Recognizing Drive
Mar 24, 2015I've set up a dual boot system with Debian and Windows 8, both installed on their own drive, with their own boot partition. I installed eveything in UEFI-Mode with fast- and secure boot turned off. Both installations are working, as I can access them by changing the boot priority in the Bios. What I cannot achieve is to let grub boot my windows installation.
This is the output of parted -l:
Code: Select allModel: ATA Samsung SSD 840 (scsi)
Disk /dev/sda: 128GB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B
Partition Table: gpt
Number Start  End  Size  File system   Name Flags
 1   1049kB 512MB 511MB  fat32         boot
 2   512MB  111GB 111GB  ext4
 3   111GB  128GB 17,0GB linux-swap(v1)
[Code] ....Â
As you can see, my linux install is on sda, my windows install on sdc (sdb beeing a data disk). This is the entry I made in the 40_custom file in etc/grub.d:
Code: Select allmenuentry "Windows 8.1" {
insmod part_gpt
insmod chain
set root='(hd2,gpt2)'
chainloader /EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi
boot
}
I think this should be fine, but if I choose the windows entry wehen grub is booting, it says: error: no such partition. It's my first debian installation, and I am stuck here. Not too much of Linux experience in general.
Ubuntu :: 10.04 Installer Not Recognizing Windows 7 Partition?
Jun 10, 2010I've previously installed ubuntu using wubi. But this is the first time I've tried installing it directly on the hard drive. I bought a new 320 gig hard disk and divided into 3 partitions of 50gig for windows 7, 30 gig for ubuntu and and the remaining for data. I installed windows 7 on the 50 gig partition. When I tried to install ubuntu using usb boot device, it says no operating system found and all my hard disk is muddled up and I can't see my partitions.
Now I go into live cd mode and see if I can mount my partitions and there I can see all the partitions. I formatted the 30 gig partition which was previously in NTFS to FAT32 and tried to install ubuntu directly from the live cd into the 30gig partition. But still the installer cannot see either my partitions nor my windows 7.As of now I'm using VMplayer and running ubuntu on a virtual machine. But would really prefer to have it installed on the hard drive to derive its full power.

Debian :: Installer Not Recognizing Existing Partitions
Apr 18, 2011Currently, I have a dual boot set up with Ubuntu and PCLinuxOS. I have a separate / and /home partition for both (ext4). When I run the installer, it claims the whole disc is empty. I tried the expert option and loaded every module that seemed to have to do with partitioning, but that made no change. Is there some simple option I am missing that might help it recognize that there are existing partitions? This was the "testing" installer if that makes any difference.

Jul 6, 2010I am currently running an Asus EEe PC 1000H with Windows 7 installed on it. I am trying to set up a dual boot with Debian. My problem is: I boot the netbook via an SD card with the netinstaller image. When it comes to create partitions, the installer tells me, that my HDD is completely empty, which is not true. I have 3 partitions, one with w7, one with stuff (fat32) and one empty, where debian should go. Because it doesn't recognize my partitions, it only wants to create a new partition on the supposedly empty HDD, which is not what I want. Why does it not recognize my HDD? It always worked with Ubuntu, LinuxMint etc.
View 1 Replies View RelatedDebian Configuration :: Kernel Not Recognizing Boot Option ?
Aug 25, 2010I'm running Squeeze and I've been running into the r8169 hang problem (see [url]for example). A temporary (until the driver foibles in the kernel are resolved) solution that seems to be working for many people is passing the boot option "pcie_aspm=off" to the kernel.
Apparently, either I don't understand grub2 at all or my kernel doesn't like me very much. I put the option in grub.cfg like so:
However, it appears that the kernel, for whatever reason, is either not being given this boot option or it's not interpreting it correctly. When I run lspci -vv I get this for my r8169 ethernet card:
The relevant section is LnkCtl: ASPM L0s L1 Enabled; indicating that ASPM is still on.
Networking :: Ldap Not Recognizing Users On Debian Network
Jan 16, 2010I installed ldap on my server and one of my client machines yesterday.It also now won't let me get into graphical utilities that require root privileges; synaptic for example. It comes back with "incorrect password". I noticed that in the terminal it now requires me to enter two passwords to become root: the root password and the ldap password. I wonder if the two are related.I'm not sure what information to post; there's a ton of configuration files associated with this setup. Can somebody help me troubleshoot this? Thanks!

Ubuntu Installation :: 10.10 Not Recognizing Only Hdd?
Mar 11, 2011I am trying to install a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.10, but I am finding it is not recognising my only HDD in the machine. It is working because I am running Windows 7 x64 on it.
Here are my machine specs:
CPU: AMD Athlon 64 X2 5600+
Motherboard: XFX MI-A78U-8309 GeForce 8300
Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce 8300 + 8400
HDD: WDC WD5001AALS-00L3B2 ATA (~415GB)
The installation knows when my IDE drive is plugged in, but I want to install the boot sector in the WDC drive.
WUBI also fails to install on this current drive, though can setup the boot sector OK.
Ubuntu Installation :: 10.4 Not Recognizing HDD On Install?
Jun 21, 2010I am trying the 10.4 version from last months APC DVD (I have used 8.4 (liked it) and 9.4 (failed to install) and I am trying to install it on my spare rig to see how it all goes.
System Specs:
Intel E6850 @Stock Speeds (normally OC'd to 3.2GHz)
G.Skill 2GIG DDR2 800Mhz RAM
WD500GIG SATAII Green HDD
Gigabyte P35 Motherboard (latest Bios)
Nvidia 9600GT Palit Sonic GPU
I boot disc from post, goes through the 1st 3 steps, select time zone etc and it wont find my HDD but it will find my USB mem stick when its plugged in.
I will keep fiddling in the bios to make sure that I have everything correct (it works fine when I installed w7 about 2 hours earlier)
I am installing it without dramas on a old P4 1.6GHz s478, 512mb Ram, 40GIG IDE and a old Geforce MX460 GPU and its at 53% so I know that the disc / version is good.

Ubuntu Installation :: Not Recognizing Hard Drives?
May 1, 2011Alright so i'm trying to install ubuntu 11.04 except it's not recognizing my hard drives. I have two 80gigs plugged in via sata. And neither of them are being recognized by ubuntu. I have tried plugging them in together, and separately, still nothing. I'm getting pretty frustrated. Ubuntu 11.04 just doesn't seem to be working for me. I can run from the liveCD, but i get no unity desktop environment

May 2, 2010I am new to Linux and actually just finished my install about 30 minutes ago. Ubuntu 10.04 isn't recognizing my wireless adapter, so I need to install the drivers. I know where the drivers are, I just don't know how to install them on a Linux system.
Here is the driver page. I don't know how to download the .inf file (necessary?) but I have ndiswrapper, bcmwl5.sys, and sp33008.exe all in the downloads folder.
Apparently just double clicking the files does nothing, so what do I do now?
Ubuntu Installation :: 10.04 Not Recognizing Free Space On Install?
Nov 13, 2010I had ubuntu 8.10 installed, but support was no longer offered - I wasn't able to upgrade software etc. I decided to upgrade to 10.04 today. I made the boot disk as normal, but when I went to install it I got the message "This computer has no operating systems installed". The only options were to wipe the entire hard drive or create my own partitions.
I have Windows Vista installed, so I deleted the partition which had ubuntu 8.10 (and also the swap file partition) so I now have free space on the computer. However, in Vista this shows up as an extended partition with Dell MediaDirect.
When I go back to the 10.04 installer, it still does not recognize my Vista installation, and only gives me the option of wiping the HDD. From googling and searching these forums, it appears as though the problem is that the free space and the Dell MediaDirect partitions overlap and this is why the free space is not recognized by ubuntu.
Ubuntu Installation :: 10.10 Install Not Recognizing Hard Disk / What To Do?
Jan 7, 2011I'm having trouble getting Ubuntu installed on my desktop, I'm trying to get a dual boot going with Windows 7.
The Windows 7 install was fine and the OS is working with no problems at all. But when I try and install Ubuntu, the installer can't see any hard disks on the system. The first screen is OK where it checks for available disk space, but on the following screen there are no disks listed.
I can boot into the Live CD with no problems, and I can see the disk and create partitions with GParted, but when I go back into the install it can't see them. fdisk -l can see them as well code...
I tried using the all_generic_ide option as well because I saw that in another post but it didn't help. I'm not really sure where to go from here, I've looked in the BIOS and there's very few options relating to the HDD, and none of them seem relevant. There's no RAID configuration or anything weird like that.
The machine is an AMD 64 with a Gigabyte GA-K8N-SLI motherboard. The HDD is a 250GB SATA2. The disk seems fine, and I've verified the install DVD as well, it seems to be OK (I tried both the 32 and 64 bit installers).
Ubuntu Installation :: Not Recognizing Video Card And Sata Hard Drive On 9.10?
Feb 21, 2010I have been trying to install Ubuntu on my main computer for some time. I think I have two problems: my hard drive and video card. I started with Ubuntu 9.04 but got nowhere. I am now trying Ubuntu 9.10 32 bit. I can at least use the live cd if I put the video on safe mode. Just in case you are wondering, I have tried other distros: Fedora, OpenSUSE, Slitaz, Wolvix, etc. Only Slitaz and Ubuntu 9.10 works on a live cd.
Information on my computer:
OS: Trying to install Ubuntu 9.10 32bit
Motherboard: ASUS M3A78
CPU: AMD Phenom 9500 Quad Core
Video Card: Galaxy Geforce 9500 GT 1GB 128 bit DDR2 (Nvidia) Hard Drive: Hitachi 1 TB Sata Drive 3 Gb/sec 7200 RPM Ram: 4 GB (I think, its been awhile since I built this thing) DVD Burner: LG I think I have two problems: the Sata Hard Drive and the Video Card. When I go to install it, I can get to the install menu but from there all I get is a blank screen. I have tried to put the video in safe mode then install it but I get the same result: a blank screen.
How do I know if Ubuntu recognize the Hard Drive and Video Card? I tried the mount command to see what it sees but I didn't notice any Sata Drives. I was told that I may have to do something with the kernel so it will recognize my Hard Drive. How would I do that?
I have been working on this for awhile now. On a side note, does it matter which Sata Plug the hard drive is on? Right now I have it on the 1st one but I would like to move it to the second one because I want a dual boot system. And yes I know I can use the same hard drive but I would like to keep them separated and use a switch to pick which OS system to use.
While running on the Live Cd, Ubuntu seems to know about my video card and ask to install some drivers but then it asked to be rebooted and it came back up not recognizing anything; video card and hard drive that is. On the live cd I ran the following commands: lswh, lspci, mount, and df. I am not too sure if they will show if the hard drive and the video card are working since I did them on the Live CD. Also on the lspci command, I did this after Ubuntu loaded the driver for the card.
