Hello, I am a student from India and I have bought Sony VAIO e series laptop(Product name-SVE15128CNB and Model no.-SVE151A11W). I really need to install Ubuntu on my laptop . I have tried various times to install Ubuntu along with Windows 8 on my Laptop but every time either it gets installed in legacy mode(its not good as every time I have to go into Ubuntu I have to switch Boot mode) or when I installed it in UEFI mode as per instruction on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI
, I was unable to access my Windows partition.I have read nearly all post related to dual boot problem but I am unable to solve my issue related to dual.
Some posts on Sony community said that Sony does not support dual boot but I wonder if no one having Sony VAIO had ever installed Ubuntu on their laptop. I have already recovered my Laptop 3 times since December
So I request to help me out with my problem . It will very kind if someone can tell me step wise(take care that i am a beginner) process to install Ubuntu(dual boot) on a Sony Laptop . I hope it will solve problem of lots of people having VAIO.
Thanks in advance.
