There is no E! Seems as if Windows 10 kind of blended the two OS. If I am in Windows 10 I have drive letters C, D, and F & G. F appears to be mostly Win 10 folders (Documents is linked back to local C). If I am in Windows 7 I have four drive letters. I am new to Win 10 so maybe this next part is just the way it is.
#Install ubuntu from usb chromebook install
Is there something I could have done differently with the Win 10 install so everything would have been separate? Would it have required a separate drive for Win 10 with the other disconnected? Is there anything I can do now? I could remove Win 10 and Ubuntu at this point and reinstall them, but what about the Win 7 bootloader? I don't have a rescue disc/USB. Choose the option Try Ubuntu without installing. Press ESC when prompted and you will see 3 drives: the USB 3.0 drive, the live Linux USB drive (I am using Ubuntu) and the eMMC (the Chromebooks internal drive). A mild pain, but now I know how it works. Power on the Chromebook and press Ctrl + L to get to the BIOS screen. If I choose Win 10 again, I go directly to Win 7. Good! If I choose Win 7, after several seconds, it goes back to the Grub menu. If I choose Win 10 I go directly to Win 10. Good! If I choose Windows 10 I get a Windows screen that asked if I want to boot to Windows 10 or Windows 7. If you like it and want to use it all the time, then install it on your chrome book. Instead I recommend if you have a Mac, just download a VM (oracle Virtual box is good ), install the Unbutu iso in the Virtual Machine and test it out. So, did Win 10 put its bootloader in different partition than its own?īehavior: If I choose Ubuntu it goes to Ubuntu. You can partition your HD and install Ubuntu on there and boot to there so you have both OS.
When Grub comes up it shows Ubuntu and Windows 10 as choices. So reinstalled Ubuntu choosing to replace existing Ubuntu installation. I think it worked but I didn’t realize it was OK (see below). I shrank the Win 7 partition to get ~150 GB for Win 10. Bought Home version directly from Microsoft. I was running Win 7 and Ubuntu 18.04 as dual boot.
