[ubuntu-in] Linux not boot

[Amarendra Kumar]

Your Vista will be there. Just choose not to use entire disk or maximum free
space options available. Choose here:

"Specify partitions manually (advanced)"

*Now you have to remember which partition you had created for "Linux
installation"*. *Select that one from a list like below. Size should be the
clue.* Do not select Vista partition. :

*Create only one partition as mount point "/". I hope your RAM is more than
2GB or even if it's 1GB it's fine. I will suggest not to create separate
/swap or /home partition. Keep it simple.*

*While selecting disk for grub install. select your hard disk. should be *
hd0* if there's only one hard disk connected*. *You will get an option for
that in* advanced* :

It will detect your Windows installation and next time you reboot, you will
get a boot menu with both the OSs. If you are able to boot into Ubuntu then
open a "Terminal" and run this command (only if it didn't detect Windows") :
*
(Ignore this step if Windows was in the boot menu)

"sudo update-grub"
*
I hope you should be good to go now. *

*PS. that's exactly what did when installing it on a friend's system
recently.*

*Cheers!!*
