Mates.
I recently bought a Gateway NE522 laptop.
It came with Windows 8. I decided to format it, install windows on a small partition and install ubuntu after that.
The thing is that when I run Ubuntu installation, it doesn't recognize my windows 8 installation.
I googled a bit, and found a few possible solutions, like running ubuntu installation with UEFI boot activated. And still the same (And now can't acces the bios config, by the way)
By now I'm formatting all and installing just ubuntu.
What I need to know is...
Either if is there a way to make ubuntu's installation "see" windows 8, or if there's a way to install windows after ubuntu and then configure it's boot from grub.
Hope someone can help me through this.
Thanks in advance!
