Install win7 & ubuntu10.04 pain

  
two days ago, due to the move, I am interested, ready to install a full hard drive ubuntu (previously on vmware). So
found ubuntu9.04 disk installation, before all very smooth, wait until the update system provides the installation package, it began to go wrong. .
First of all, ubuntu reported an error at startup, saying that the graphics card error, can only work in low-graphic mode, so easy to enter easy to enter ubuntu, the display is very card, and in the "look", let alone "Extension" means that "normal" is dark, and you can only choose simple,
experience and its unhappy. Online check, said ubuntu9.04 support for integrated graphics is not good, my board is G41, integrated graphics.
So decided to change the version of ubuntu. After
, I was ready to install ubuntu9.10. As a result, even the installation interface could not get in, and I was given an error. . . . Helpless, and chose
ubuntu10.04, still the installation interface can not get in. . . I started to doubt the X problem. When Ubuntu 9.10 is installed, X:
$ dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
$ ........................... ....................... The result can be generated by xorg.conf.new, after test, directly black screen. . Helpless, move the computer to the lab. . . After I went, a very nx colleague, at first glance, said that it was definitely a mistake in gdm, and changed a configuration in biOS, you can enter. . . Tragedy, I moved the computer to squeeze the bus for 1 hour, and it was fixed in 5 minutes. .
The approximate settings in biOS are like this:
In Advanced Chipset Features in biOS
There is an option PAVP Mode, which has 3 options:
Disabled ......[]
PAVP Lite Mode ......[]
Paranoid PAVP ......[]
When I selected the second PAVP Lite Mode, install ubuntu9.10
and Ubuntu10.04 has not been able to do, the phenomenon is: You can choose to install ubuntu,
Then, the character terminal will appear, showing the disable to handle kernel null pointer, and later, the above biOS option is changed to the first Disable, you can Normal! ! ! ! ! !
My motherboard model is: G41M-ES2L F4
Later found that it may not be related to whether to choose the second option, mainly when selecting PAVP Lite Mode,
I started to choose 256M, not Yes, when I change to 128M, it will be fine! ! ! ! ! !
In this way, I successfully installed ubuntu10.04, and then, I want to install a Win7
, after installing Win7, I thought I was done, I did not expect. . . Windows is not as friendly as ubuntu. If you install Windows, you will generate a grub yourself. It doesn't matter whether there is a system before. As a result, Win7 can be started. My ubuntu10.04 can't be found. . . Is it necessary to install ubuntu10.04???? I just spent nearly an hour to update the installation package. . .
At this time, the nxx colleagues came forward, we tried to build a new grub. When I think about it, I think of a way to use wubi, it is a clever way! ! ! Since wubi installs ubuntu will automatically add a grub, choose to enter ubuntu, or Windows, we will add our ubuntu10.04 grub information in grub under ubuntu (our ubuntu10.04 is not lost, just can not boot) So, you can choose ubuntu at startup, and then choose our ubuntu10.04, haha! ! !
Although the experience is a little bad (start to manually select twice to enter ubuntu10.04), but after all, it has been successful! ! ! The installation process was painful, but I also learned a lot and learned lessons. Note later, if you want to install windows and ubuntu dual system, you must first install Windows, then install ubuntu! ! ! ! Finally, I would like to thank my nxx colleague, Thank very!! I hope this article will help you!
