Ubuntu on Second Drive Windows 10
Hey guy I have been struggling getting a dual boot set up and I could use some help. I just bought a new computer and the first thing I did was I installed a SSD and installed windows 10 onto it. So what I am working with is one SSD which has windows 10 and a very large HDD. I would like to install ubuntu on my HDD and be able to dual boot to it while still using the majority of the HDD for windows home user type stuff.
I have installed ubuntu several times with a few different configurations, but it always will just boot to windows. The bios does not recognize that the HDD is bootable. I have tried several different 'step by steps' but none of them are seeming to work.
I have a large RESULTS.txt file that I got from bootinfoscript while using ubuntu from my memory stick to try and resolve this, and I can get you pretty much any other data you need. Not sure if you want. The bootinfo is quite large, if you want a section let me know what section to post.
Below is the fdisk -l
Thanks

Post link to summary report from Boot-Repair. Link will show all details including partitioning. Microsoft requires vendors to install Windows in UEFI boot mode. But user can install in 35 yr old BIOS/MBR configuration. Did you install in UEFI mode and then also install Ubuntu in UEFI boot mode? What brand/model system? What video card/chip? askubuntu.com/questions/913716/…

Not familiar with grub2win. Looks like an alternative to rEFInd for graphical icons for bootmanger. Boot managers are menu and grub is both bootmanager & boot loader. What brand system? Your Ubuntu entry in UEFI does not look correct. I would from Boot-Repair's advanced options when live installer is booted in UEFI mode, do the full reinstall of grub2. Your Windows install is a bit strange as it is not all on SSD? The ESP - efi system partition is on HDD. Was system set to boot from HDD when you installed Windows so that was where it put ESP?

oldfred thanks for the help. The grub2win was an attempt I made at resolving the issue based on typical internetting. So to answer your last question I would say yes, the system was originally set to boot from HDD. Now however in the bios there is no option to boot from HDD, only from the SSD and the memory stick. Post windows install I removed all partitions from the HDD that I could through windows. Two partitions remained.

oldfred can you clarify "I would from Boot-Repair's advanced options when live installer is booted in UEFI mode, do the full reinstall of grub2" How do you boot live installer in UEFI mode? I assume that is the ubuntu installer?

I went with defaults on the windows installation and with the ubuntu installation I selected the 'something else' and selected the sdb with the largest free space, allocating 50gig or so. Then for the boot option at the bottom I picked the sdb. The computer is an acer aspire tc-780-ur12 desktop

Not familiar with grub2win. Looks like an alternative to rEFInd for graphical icons for bootmanger. Boot managers are menu and grub is both bootmanager & boot loader. What brand system? Your Ubuntu entry in UEFI does not look correct. I would from Boot-Repair's advanced options when live installer is booted in UEFI mode, do the full reinstall of grub2. Your Windows install is a bit strange as it is not all on SSD? The ESP - efi system partition is on HDD. Was system set to boot from HDD when you installed Windows so that was where it put ESP?

oldfred thanks for the help. The grub2win was an attempt I made at resolving the issue based on typical internetting. So to answer your last question I would say yes, the system was originally set to boot from HDD. Now however in the bios there is no option to boot from HDD, only from the SSD and the memory stick. Post windows install I removed all partitions from the HDD that I could through windows. Two partitions remained.

oldfred can you clarify "I would from Boot-Repair's advanced options when live installer is booted in UEFI mode, do the full reinstall of grub2" How do you boot live installer in UEFI mode? I assume that is the ubuntu installer?

Post link to summary report from Boot-Repair. Link will show all details including partitioning. Microsoft requires vendors to install Windows in UEFI boot mode. But user can install in 35 yr old BIOS/MBR configuration. Did you install in UEFI mode and then also install Ubuntu in UEFI boot mode? What brand/model system? What video card/chip? askubuntu.com/questions/913716/…

After much digging I figured it out. Run CMD as administrator in windows and use this command:
bcdedit /set {bootmgr} path EFIubuntugrubx64.efi
