Install 64-bit Kubuntu on 32-bit UEFI system
Solution 1:
I've got a system very similar to your specifications. So here is what you've to follow,
- Make a Easy to boot drive......with agFM files for UEFI32 booting, You can find out more about this on their website.
- Download Kubuntu AMD64 and copy it over to the USB stick (USB DRIVE/_ISO/Linux)
- Download GRUB2WIN and install it to your EFI system partition
- Boot into your Kubuntu using the Easy to boot drive you've created earlier
- Install it along side windows (Dual boot)....The installation will fail, but reboot
- Boot back to Windows and Create a UEFI entry using GRUB2WIN and you can do all kinds of customizations there
- Boot back to Linux and wipe out the WINDOWS partition
- Use Gparted live to merge the windows portion to the Linux partition
- You can remove windows UEFI entry, set grub timeout to 0, and set Kubuntu to default in Step 6 (in GRUB2WIN)
- You've successfully installed KUBUNTU on UEFI32
