I just installed Ubuntu 14.10 on a second smaller HD (250 Gb). The larger HD (1 Tb) is hosting Windows 8.1.
After a long time installing, I clicked to restart, however for a long time nothing happened. The screen had already gone black but the pc was still running. I must have waited about 10 minutes. So I forced it to go off by holding the start button down.
Then I started the pc. But no booting choice was offered. Windows booted right in.
Any ideas?
When installing Ubuntu I chose the sdb disk as the location for the boot file. Not sdb1, I read somewhere that if I did choose sdb1 (or 2, 3, 4) I'd have to manually add Ubuntu in the MBR file.
Am I supposed to manually add Ubuntu in the MBR file now anyway?
Thanks guys,
JDL
