Hello all,
I was successful first installing this, but forgot the settings now I
cannot do it again.
I have an HP Envy DV7-7243Cl notebook which I have 2 1TB disks on it and
16GB of memory.
The secure boot is disabled, I have an UEFI system to it. The 2 hard drives
are set to RAID0 stripping and I've got ride of Windows.
If I create a new partition table with GParted, (I have tried both GPT and
MSDOS).
I then create, with GPARTED 2 partitions.
One, at the begining, is a FAT32 partition with /boot/efi and flag boot. It
is sized for 200mb.
The second, right after, is unformated 5mb with bios_grub flag (when I did
the GPT partition).
Then, I do the install and add 32768mb for SWAP and the rest as EXT4 /.
I' ve place the GRUB boot loader on VOLUME0 which is the stripped volume
which is what I did when it worked the first time.
Well, now nothing works.
Hence, my questions are:
- Using an UEFI stripped RAID 0 system. What is the partition table to use?
GPT or MSDOS?
- How do you correctly create the 2 partiions, the one for EFI and the
second for the bios_grub flag if you do GPT?
- Where shall I mount GRUB? I did volume0 and then even tried the EFI
partiion without success.
I have also tried boot-repair with all different settings I describe above
and in no time it worked.
Eventually my goal is to install 13.04.
Please let me know. Thanks.
