Hello <br>
<br>
The manual option is dedicated to manage your specific installation.
Have some trouble to use this option?<br>
NB : I use manual option since several years without any problem<br>
<br>
Happy new years : TuxMario<br>

<div dir="ltr">Hi,<br>
<br>
I am currently attempting to install Kubuntu 18.04.1 on
a HP Pavilion 15-cr0001ng notebook which came
preinstalled with Windows 10 Home Edition. In
preparation, I shrunk the C: drive to get some 400GB of
free storage on the (single) HDD. I then booted the
Kubuntu 18.04.1 DVD (via an external drive) downloaded
from <a
href="http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/18.04/release/kubuntu-18.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso"
target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/18.04/release/kubuntu-18.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso</a>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Unfortunately, the only options the installer
offers are to use the entire disk (which I
definitively do not want) or to do some manual
"juggling" (which I'd like to avoid), see <a
href="https://drive.google.com/open?id=1RurYPo9djb1wHYhe2YoAUu0ZblwLPn9U"
target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">01_installation_type.png</a>.<br>
</div>
<div>
<div><br>
</div>
</div>
<div>Both the "Installation type" and the "Prepare
partitions" steps clearly show the Windows
installation and also the free space intended for the
Kubuntu installation (see also <a
href="https://drive.google.com/open?id=1m0ZKXkwOuZSfbRXS8dw5cjg1oMhVDrY5"
target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">02_prepare_partitions.png</a>);
yet, there is no option to install Kubuntu alongside
the Windows installation (without having to resort to
manual modification of partitions.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I also selected "Try Kubuntu" first, followed by an
upgrade of packages via WiFi (hoping that maybe also
the installer would be updated to a newer version).
Without effect.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Is automatic installation alongside Windows really
not supported? Did I miss something?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>See attachments for the output of parted and
efibootmgr.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Two additional questions:</div>
<div>
<ol>
<li>Is it possible to either install solely to the
spare partition (without *installing* grub but
booting grub from the DVD and from there starting
the HDD based Kubuntu) or to remove grub later on
(if I should decide to revert to a Windows-only
notebook)?</li>
<li>The live DVD did not detect the built-in WiFi (I
had to use one connected via USB instead) which is
a RealTek RTL8821CE [10ec:c821] (see attached
lspci.txt). Is this expected?<br>
</li>
</ol>
</div>
<div>Thanks in advance for your support.<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Kind regards</div>
