So i tried installing antiX linux on my laptop, which had arch linux with an encrypted partition, i did delete the partition using gparted but it didn't help, then i tried formatting the entire drive using dd, but its still there, so i can't install anything. Every time i try to install antiX, it asks for password, but the encryption password i used on arch doesn't work, nor does the user and root password. Does anyone know how do i remove it? edit: i think antiX just sucks, since kali installed with no problems, and i don't regret doing so, because they made xfce look amazing, while using the amount of resources as the normal one

Hi, I have installed a COMPLETE and FULL version of Kali Linux on Windows 11 Pro Hyper-V virtual machine with 4GB RAM and 3 CPUs with boot drive encryption however after a virtual machine reboot to boot into Kali Linux for the first thing it asks is my boot drive encryption password and whatever i do i cannot use ANY keyboard inputs/mouse AT all and it sucks i have spend an hour or more installing the damn Kali Linux OS and it just won't respond to my keyboard inputs in Hyper-V console even when i edit the boot grub before booting to remove Quiet/Interface and get a standard Linux boot style with outputs it asks for boot drive encryption again and it just does NOT respond to any of my inputs from my regular usb keyboard at all and my mouse isn't working either nothing works no response i am just hard stuck without the possibility of entering my encryption password at all it sucks *** help me please Thanks

Before i had ubuntu on my hdd and win 10 on ssd later i upgraded (i just deleted the partition of ubuntu (it was dumb)) to win 10 on ssd and win 11 on hdd I didnt use win 10 for a while but i was fed up with slow win11 on hdd. So in the bios i moved the m.2 drive up (the m.2 drive is just blank, no bootloaders i guess?) then it booted into win 11, when i removed hdd from the boot it just said no os found. i think my bootloader is on hdd. I still have the problem of grub being still on there.

Hello there, A week ago I made a mistake and ran some malicious software, which used an token logger to hack into my discord account. After finding out, whipping everything from discord from my SSD, I thought, I could finally switch to Linux for good. So I put in another SSD and installed debian on it (I already use debian at work so why not). The week was full of troubleshooting, having "fun" with Nvidia driver issues, Steam problems and so on. At one point, grub had a little hickup and then I think it happened. Now when I start my PC, I post very quickly to the BIOS Splash screen, then I stay like that for around 8 minutes, after that it goes into the BIOS when you pressed DEL during those 8 minutes or it goes to grub and boots the selected OS. At that point I was so fed up that I switched my boot order and made my windows SSD the primary boot device, but I still have an 8 minute boot to the OS and Windows itself takes another 2 Minutes to boot. When I'm in the OS itself everything is responsive, no suspicious activity, no load on my CPU/GPU, nothing. Then I decided to flash a new BIOS on my motherboard, but that didn't help either. I have now reached a point where I'm quite desperate and no longer have any idea what to do. PC Specs: Windows 10 Home 22H2 64 bit | Debian 12 bookworm Alpha ASUS ROG STRIX X570-E Gaming (BIOS version 4408, latest) AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D (stock) 4x16GB (64GB) G.Skill TridentZ DDR4-3200 (DOCP profile 1 (3200 MHz)) ASUS TUF NVidia RTX 3090 OC edition (stock) Seasonic TX-1000 (1000 Watt PSU) 2TB XPG GAMMIX S5 NVMe (Windows Boot SSD) 1TB Crucial P3 NVMe (Grub/Debian Boot SSD)

Grub bootloader does not detect my windows installation. Windows is installed on a different disk than grub. Am I right in thinking that grub does not search for installs on different disks? Windows is mounted to /run/media/isxander/Windows. I have used update-grub and os-prober but nothing works. Edit: I have had problems with grub in the past. Manjaro made grub hidden by default. Also, when peeking in grub.cfg, a lot of things are uncommented when they said uncomment if which suggests manjaro has changed it quite a lot Edit 2: I am new with linux so I am not comfortable with changing configs unless it is step-by-step (hope you understand)

I followed this article online to install Chrome OS on my laptop, I followed every step correctly and got all the way up to the Loading Brunch Framework screen to boot into Chrome OS. I don't know why but it's boot looping again and again. Is there a way to fix this? I used the grunt_recovery.bin file since my laptop is running AMD. Here is a link to the article stating how to install Chrome OS on a Windows 10 laptop that I used. https://beebom.com/how-install-chrome-os-on-pc/

Hi all, I am planning on updating my i7-4770K setup later in the year, and I have a quick question about the NVME drive setup in the BIOS. I currently have Windows 10 on my 4770K gaming system, and Linux Mint on an older home-office PC. In an ideal world, I would like to dual-boot on the one PC in the future, use Linux Mint as the main OS, and occasionally dual-boot into Windows 10 for gaming etc. I know you can have both OSs on the same NVME drive, but I've had bad experiences in the dim and distant past, so I've found it much more stable to have two separate computers, or two separate SSDs, never let the boot managers know about each other by disabling disks in the BIOS during installation, and just switch between them in the BIOS boot menu. However, we now have NVME drives and I would like to take advantage of the faster speeds. So my questions are: Can I disable a NVME drive in the UEFI/BIOS, when installing each OS? If not, is there a way inside GRUB to hide the Windows 10 disk? From what I remember, Windows never sees the ext4 partitions anyway... I know this question is vague on the actual motherboard, or even the brand, but that is because answers to this question will inform exactly what motherboard I end up buying... But if it helps people, I am thinking of going for an Asus Prime board, either for the Intel Alder Lake or AMD 6000 series, whichever has better price/performance for 8-core CPUs upon release. If not, then I will end up installing one OS, unscrewing NVME 1, install NVME 2 in the other slot, install the other OS, and then put NVME 1 in, and choose the boot device as normal in the UEFI/BIOS - and hope I always remember to not update GRUB Thanks in advance!

Every time I try to install Ubuntu the GRUB bootloader fails to work and doesn't show any of my boot options. So, I can install Ubuntu but I can't get into ubuntu. I installed Pop os and I was able to boot into it from uefi by pressing f12 on my keyboard. The problem is that Pop os is giving me issues with not having the right resolution for my display and my aux port won't work with it. So, I decided I want to try stock Ubuntu. I then learned that Pop os used systemd-boot instead of Grub and that is why it booted and ubuntu didn't. So, I was wondering if after installing ubuntu to my drive, is there a way to boot from a live usb and access my installation using the live usb and change my bootloader from grub to systemd-boot in terminal?

so I was installing Arch Linux the other day because I want to do soem linux ricing yes. I did a successful install on my old lenovo legion y7000 laptop but it is not my main device and I want Arch Linux on my custom build PC. I followed the Arch Wiki and everything went well in the installation process until the last bit of installing grub bootloader. Since I am dualbooting Windows and Pop!_OS initially and is about to do a "triple-booting" with Arch Linux added to the list, I used os-prober to auto-detect other systems and add to the grub bootloader entries. It did detect Pop!_OS when I mounted the partition and did not find windows since I didnt mount it and I dont need it in my grub bootloader entries. Now the problem is, from the output of os-prober, only popos is detected, even though the arch linux base system is installed and mounted. Even after I used the command to summon the grub.cfg, from the boot options under Arch linux root partition /mnt/boot/EFI/grub/grubx64.efi (if I recall correctly) there is no sign of Arch linux whatsoever. It was just popos, popos advanced options and uefi firmware settings. pls provide some solutions thanks

New boot manager entry created every time I start up my pc
yelifiv posted a topic in Troubleshooting
This started happening after I installed Pop OS! alongside Windows 10 dual boot and using gnu grub bootloader Every time I boot up my PC a new boot entry is added to my boot manager inside my bios. All the entries are exaclty the same have the following name : UEFI: SAMSUNG MZHPU512HCGL-00000, Partition 7 I already tried removing all of them with bcdedit /delete on my windows os but they keep reappearing. Does anyone know how to fix this or what might be causing it, it's annoying and I'm scared if they pile up it might cause errors. -
I started setting up Linux to dual boot for an additional coding environment earlier this week and have been doing tweaks such as changing the login screen finding a way so that I don't use the default Dell boot loading screen that's all blue and make pop!_OS feel a bit more like Windows with KDE but have noticed even after fixing the stuff where something would crash I get these weird graphical glitches as seen in the first image either when restarting the fcomputer or after choosing to boot up into pop. Does anyone have any ideas as to possible causes and fixes? Thank you for your time, Ultraforce.

Got a laptop here which I previously LVM encrypted. A member of the family needs a laptop so giving them this. having I can’t remember the crypto password so I thought formatting the disk would work but it just goes in to grub rescue. any idea how to bypass this? I don’t care for any data.

I just installed Linux Mint on my old Toshiba laptop to see if it would run better than Windows 10. I want to keep both on the computer in case I need to switch. The laptop boots directly to Windows and I cannot get it to boot into Linux Mint. Here is some information about things I have tried: Grub/ubuntu/linux are not listed in the boot order There is no option to add new boot device Changing boot order in Terminal from Live Mint session does not work (https://linuxmint-installation-guide.readthedocs.io/en/latest/efi.html#efi-boot-order) Mounting the Linux Mint partition and reinstalling the grub menu did not work (https://linuxmint-installation-guide.readthedocs.io/en/latest/multiboot.html#fix-the-boot-sequence) Fast Startup and secure boot are both off Holding shift and escape to open Grub does not work.

Hi, am having trouble setting up dual boot between Windows 10 and Pop OS. I installed Pop alongside my existing windows install. I can swap between each OS fine if i change the boot order in BIOS, so both OS's are installed fine, but when in the boot manager Pop OS is not listed. I have each OS installed on different drives (so not partitioned on a single drive). What i think i need from researching is to install GRUB as a boot manager as i think the windows boot manager only detects windows, is that right??? but honestly im not sure and cant seem to find a GRUB download or a clearer explanation of what exactly i need to do. Anyone able to help? Thanks in advance.

Hi, I just installed Manjaro gnome one day ago and it got stuck at a black screen with no cursor or any display at all, i tried opening the TTY but that didn’t work too, no command prompt appears, then after several forced shutdowns, it booted normally. Then when i rebooted it, it went back to the same problem, the system boots up because i can activate airplane mode and caps lock, even when i hit Fn+F1 which is for sleep mode, the pc goes to sleep mode. I tried replacing “quiet” With "3" In the grub menu but still, nothing worked I repeat, TTY won’t open up as well. I installed the proprietary Nvidia and Intel drivers during installation. Thanks in advanced

Hi, I am going to describe the issue in a broad way to better explain the situtation! I am having a problem with my dual boot system. I had an SSD. Previously I installed Windows 10 on that, then I decided to dual boot. So I made free space and started doing the installation. In the installation menu, I choosed windows drive to install ubuntu boot loader, but again and again, I was facing the issue which was basically grub was not showing up. Then I changed the boot loader installation path, on that time, I choose the full drive in order to install ubuntu boot loader. After that, I successfully installed ubuntu and used it. Then when I wanted to go back to Windows, I saw the option of Windows 10 in grub boot loader, but when I click that, a black screen appears. I believe on the first try, I unexpectedly deleted the Windows boot loader, so windows is not loading now. I really don't know what to do, so please help me!

Hello guys, I have a PC with 3 hard disks SSD #1 (Dedicated to Ubuntu 18.04 OS) [SATA3_0] SSD #2 (Dedicated to Windows 10 OS) [SATA3_1] HDD #3 (For other files) [SATA3_2] Usually, when I boot my system, I get a GRUB menu from where I can choose a specific OS to load (Ubuntu or Windows). For some reason, I had to Reinstall Windows after which I was unable to load Windows from the GRUB menu as it was got corrupted. To fix it, I followed this post and repaired the GRUB Everything is fine now, I can load both OS without any problem, but there is one small confusion, when I checked the boot order in BIOS I found one extra entry ubuntu (SATA3_1) i.e. Ubuntu boot manager on Windows hard disk. Usually, there should be only 2 options Windows Boot Manager (SATA3_1) ubuntu (SATA3_0) If I boot from ubuntu (SATA3_0) a GRUB menu appears where I can choose the OS to load and both OS loads without any problem, but when I boot from ubuntu (SATA3_1) a GRUB terminal appears So my question is can I delete this entry ubuntu (SATA3_1) somehow, does deleting it will corrupt Windows or Ubuntu boot manager or should I just leave it, as it's not creating any problem

Hi everyone, So I decided to install Linux Mint on a second HDD but it also appeared to install a grub dual-boot screen at startup. This ended up bothering me so I did some searching and found that deleting the ubuntu folder in the EFI partition of the windows drive would remove the screen. After removing the folder, the screen successfully disappeared from start up. I also used windows "diskpart" to clean the second drive of the Linux installation. However, my windows drive is now labelled as Ubuntu In bios. Any way to change it? Selecting the Ubuntu labelled boot option just hangs for a second and doesn't do anything. However using the windows boot loader work fine. My motherboard is an ROG STRIX Z390-E GAMING. Any help is greatly appreciated.
