  8. [ubuntu_studio] Re: 12.xx Installer does not load while trying to create a Win8 Dual Boot with EFI

    I give up on this thing.

    hp and Microsoft ensured you cannot install an OS other than Windows8.

    If you are looking for a computer and want to dual boot Windows and Linux, do not buy a P7-1417!...

  13. [ubuntu_studio] Re: 12.xx Installer does not load while trying to create a Win8 Dual Boot with EFI

    Another update,

    To make things worse, Ubuntu doesn't load the Atheros R8161 Nic driver by default, so I can't get networking to run Boot-Repair on a LiveDVD, and Boot-Repair doesn't ship with...

    Ok,

    I have downloaded 12.04.2 and tested, with the same results.

    While doing so, I tried booting both 12.04.2 and 12.10 in legacy mode and they both will load the installer.

    Thanks for the help!
  18. [ubuntu_studio] Re: 12.xx Installer does not load while trying to create a Win8 Dual Boot with EFI

    Darkod,

    You are right, the UEFI bootable is only on 12.10 64-bit. I did not make it clear in my OP, that is the only reason I tried 12.10 64-bit, I would prefer 12.04 64-bit.

    When I boot the...
