Thread: Dual Booting

-

hello, know obvious answer, have tough problem, considering i'm new ubuntu. installed ubuntu onto external hd, seemed simple me, since i'm on laptop hd space limited highly, wanted large partition figured put on 320gb seagate. attached 4port externally powered 2.0 hub. here's problem, not boot ubuntu unless im plugged hub , hub working on external power. "/host/ubuntu/disks/root.disk not exist. dropping shell" , fails. have searched google long time , try avoid forums as can. @ point i'm give up. frustration @ maximum, want use ubuntu on hd without powered hub, please me.

welcome forums.

many computers have power usb ports. why hub has have external power power device needs more power or not self powered.

if looking root.disk, have installed wubi uses windows boot loader , runs inside ntfs partition. fine longer test of ubuntu can livecd , makes easy delete, not true dual boot.

how avoid wubi & install ubuntu on usb drive -amjjawad

agostino: wubi wasn’t designed long-term installations. main aim let people try out ubuntu confidence. normally, users start wubi tend upgrade full installation dedicated partition @ next release cycle.
