For secure boot you can install the linux-signed image in vanilla Ubuntu, however I don't think the Ubuntu Studio images include the -signed kernels. You probably had to install vanilla Ubuntu, then install the Ubuntu Studio packages. <div class="gmail_extra"> <div class="gmail_quote">2012/12/5 Mac <<a href="mailto:macdroid53@gmail.com" target="_blank">macdroid53@gmail.com</a>> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"> Anybody have any experience with UbS and Windows 8. Apparently 12.10 is the first rev to handle the secure boot stuff cramed onto the world by Windows 8. Does it work? Any know issues? Any tips or tricks? My friend doesn't want to afford ProTools and would like to run Ardour on his new Windows 8 pre installed laptop. In the past he used Ubuntu 11 live from usb.
