<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" rel="noreferrer noreferrer" target="_blank">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" rel="noreferrer noreferrer" target="_blank">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" rel="noreferrer noreferrer" target="_blank">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
RTL8821CEĀ [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>
