I do remember some of it.
Eventually I ended up repairing the setup:
1. Disconnect sda
2. Convert to GPT as you linked here:

3. Repair Windows...
Thanks for the quick reply. I guess a re-install would be the best option then as I don't have any important data and I was just testing around.
But why didn't Grub2 detect Windows 10 in the first...
Hello everyone, after a short break... :)
Hope all my friends are still around and doing finer than ever.
Need some help as my main laptop is refusing to boot after I installed Kubuntu 18.04...
First of all, just to let you know just in case, it isn't mandatory to contribute - in case you were wondering about Ubuntu being free and all that. Yes, it is free. It is up to you if you choose to...
Oops. LOL. My bad.
Yep, it won't be a great idea to first convert the installation disk into an ISO image and then use it with VirtualBox. Still, if the OP wants to do it, for saving the ISO for...
You can mount that ISO image and use it for installing Windows. A quick Google returned this:

Try a Live USB or a CD instead of DVD as others suggested.
There is no reason for reformatting the whole drive and start fresh. HDD installation can't/won't/shouldn't prevent booting up a...
So, I guess you are trying to boot Windows and don't want to see the Grub menu on start-up, right?
If yes, you need to boot a Windows USB/DVD and perform startup repair:
...
Just run this command:
sudo update-grub
Hopefully it would list Windows in the output there. If it does, it will automatically add it to the Grub menu and will automatically set Grub to show...
Ok then. Boot into a Live USB/CD and use GParted to resize your Ubuntu partition. I would strongly recommend to backup all your important data.
In the space that you free up, create a new Primary...
You can use both a Live USB or a CD/DVD, whichever available. And no, it doesn't need to be the same version but make sure it isn't very old. Grub2 was introduced in Ubuntu 9.10 and anything newer...
In the current setup, it looks quite difficult to install Windows. You'll need to shrink your Ubuntu partition as there doesn't seem to be any other choice. If it isn't an old install, and you feel...
Hi. Welcome to the Ubuntu Forums! :D
I am not using Linux Mint currently so can't say if Shotwell is present there by default or not. It is present in Ubuntu's official variants though.
For...
Oops, doesn't sound great. Please post the output of this one also:
sudo parted -l
I should have already requested this one also.
Please post the output of this command for letting us take a look at your partitions:
sudo fdisk -l
The best thing to do will be to boot a Live Ubuntu USB and test all your hardware. Otherwise, all of that hardware sounds familiar and should be compatible with Ubuntu.
You didn't provide many details about your partitioning setup so I guess you are able to handle those yourself. Just make sure you install Windows to a primary partition. It won't boot off a logical...
Try:
sudo cp /etc/default/grub /etc/default/grub.backup
gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub
The first command there is to make a backup of your original file.
After making the changes:
If all you want to do is to run "adb" commands, you just need to install "android-tools-adb" package:
sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb
Are you sure it is Chrome and not Chromium that you want to remove.
For removing Google Chrome:
sudo apt-get remove google-chrome-stable
For removing Chromium:
Yes, the workspaces can be disabled and they can also be reconfigured. You would need a tool like CCSM or Ubuntu-Tweak for tweaking these options. Ubuntu-Tweak is the safer option so I'll recommend...
@Spez1:
Are you sure it isn't a problem with the LAN cable or the connector? You mentioned that it works fine with Windows 7 but I still want you to check the cables as all the configuration seems...
Then try using the official repository version. Remove the current one once again:
sudo apt-get purge gnome-tweak-tool
Then go to 'Software Center > Edit > Software Sources > Other Software...
