I installed next to Windows 10 on my SSD Ubuntu on my integrated HDD hard drive. The installation ran smoothly, but now strange things happen when I restart the laptop:
It opens the repair mode of Win10, then I can choose whether I want to start Windows normally (does not work), or wants to use another medium. If I click on this option is next to usb or cd also Ubuntu to choose from. If I select this, the groub 2 boot menu opens and I can normally choose between Ubuntu and Windows. Maybe someone had the same problem and knows a solution how the boot menu opens right after the start?
I'm absolutely no expert and I do not know at all (I ask for leniency)
I suppose your PC first tries to boot from the SSD to Windows, but the Grub MBR has been manipulated there so that it expects Grub to pass parameters, which can't take place because the media is directly from the UEFI / BIOS is called and not via the bootloader.
A simple solution would be to change the boot sequence in the BIOS so that the HDD starts with Ubuntu first.
Thanks for the answer. The HDD is in the boot sequence at the top. However, even if Windows is no longer installed on this is still Windows boot manager tuned: could it be because? Is vllt somehow the bootmngr still on it? Btw if I have the ssd at the top Windows starts directly.
I have looked in the disk management there's a recovery partition on the HDD and also an efi system partition. Is a remnant of Windows? I recently moved to the SSD. Can I delete both safely?
Please go first into your bios and disable the UEFI boot and click on disable, then restart the PC and try to start your Ubuntu. Then open the terminal and enter these commands and execute them. This will fix your boot loader.
grub -install / dev / sda
grub - mkconfig
update - grub
reboot
After the reboot, the boot menu should appear the same and you can use the arrow keys to choose what OS to boot.
Have lots of fun with it.
