Dual Boot Windows 7 and Ubuntu with SSD and HDD
So I have an Acer laptop that has both an HDD and SSD. I have been having trouble dual booting Ubuntu with Windows. For some reason Ubuntu does not recognize Windows and I do not want to wipe out windows hard drive... Ive done this 3 times already on accident ha(First time I lost Windows 8 but I hated it anyway). I was wondering if it was okay to keep windows on my hdd and just install ubuntu on my ssd(20 GB)?
Or in anyone has an alternate solution I am all ears.. Thanks!
- Not to mess up with Windows while installing Ubuntu, do the partitions with Gparted THEN do a custom installation using the new partitions.
- Grub2 should find the OS whatever disk they are on. Just make sure to install the grub to the 1st disk in the boot order.
