A little background, I’m trying to install xubuntu on my mom’s laptop HP Envy17 Windows 7. Initially, I was having issues installing and found a fix where I setup a 200MB EFI partition. I’ve managed to install xubuntu; however, booting is not straight forward.
Upon booting the system, I get the following error:here
To boot into ubuntu my current workaround is to enter Startup Menu> Boot Device options>Boot From EFI File >Enter This directory
EFI>ubuntu>grubx64.efi > boots ubuntu.
2 Issues:
- This is not straight forward enough for my mom to follow. She is not tech savy at all.
- I can’t seem to locate how to boot into the windows drive I’ve left on the system.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Here is a snapshot of my hd partitions. I went kind of nuts creating, root, home, and swap and may have made a mistake.
Also here is a snapshot of my bootorder in my bios incase this would be helpful too.
