Hi. There is the situation:
I have an SSD drive and windows installed on it. I have HDD with few partitions (all of them contain vital data for my work). I left about 100GB free (unallocated) space for Linux installation. I boot the installer from USB flash drive, choose option "something else", then create an EXT4 partition for Linux installation and Swap partition for Linux-swap area. (Everything is done in installation menu). Then there is option - "Device for boot loader installation" here i select to install this boot loader to the same EXT4 partition where my Linux will be installed. After done installing Linux prompts a message to restart the mashine now. I press the restart button - everything froze. Couldn't click anything, just had to force shutdown by removing batery. After in BIOS i select to boot from HDD it does not boot but boots from second option - SSD where my windows is installed. What did i do wrong? What are solutions to get Linux booting and not freezing after shutdown?
