Install Ubuntu 15.04 dual boot Windows 10 on GPT disk with BIOS












2















Please, help my with a problem.
I try to install Ubuntu 15.04 (or 14.10, it's not important) dual boot windows 10.
My notebook is Lenovo z570 with BIOS not UEFI and installed windows 10 x64.
When i installed windows 10, she parted disk to GPT, which led to problems with installing Ubuntu.
After Ubuntu install, and reboot, GRUB2 not run, instead this windows boot manager start.



The following description of the disk



Disklabel type: gpt
Disk identifier: D1CB061A-38BF-48CE-BD0D-67E9E1DC0AB2

Device Start End Sectors Size Type
/dev/sda1 2048 923647 921600 450M Windows recovery environment
/dev/sda2 923648 1128447 204800 100M EFI System
/dev/sda3 1128448 1161215 32768 16M Microsoft reserved
/dev/sda4 1161216 209717247 208556032 99,5G Microsoft basic data
/dev/sda5 209717248 945315839 735598592 350,8G Microsoft basic data
/dev/sda6 945315840 945326079 10240 5M BIOS boot
/dev/sda7 945326080 976773134 31447055 15G Linux filesystem


I created BIOS Boot Partition, and tried to reinstall grub (grub-install by chroot to /dev/sda ) but this not work.



Maybe i'm doing something wrong...



Is there a way to intall Ubuntu dual boot Windows 10 at GPT/BIOS ?

          You say your machine supports only BIOS, not UEFI. But your partition table shows an EFI system partition (/dev/sda2), which never gets created unless an OS was booted via UEFI and tried/succeeded in installing itself.



          Further, Windows needs to be coaxed via special methods to install&boot on a GPT disk in a BIOS system, it could not have happened on its own.



          Thus its extremely likely that your system has UEFI firmware. If so, a BIOS Boot partition cannot help - an EFI bootloader needs to be added to /dev/sda2.



          Refer http://www.rojtberg.net/1032/converting-a-ubuntu-and-windows-dual-boot-installation-to-uefi/ from "Enter a Ubuntu chroot" onwards for instructions to do this. Essentially :




          • Boot into an Ubuntu disk

          • Chroot into your Ubuntu installation on disk

          • Install GRUB EFI packages

          • Add your .efi bootloader file in your UEFI boot settings


          Let me know if you are stuck at any point.
