I have looked around the forums for a fix for my situation and have come up with nothing.
I've got a Pansonic CF-30 Toughbook running windows 10 32 pro from the internal hard drive.
I've got the system all set up for my work and can't be without windows 10 for some of the applications I need.
It is not a work owned machine, I'm the owner of the machine and am free to make any changes I want.
The system has an SD card reader, however it has an older BIOS which is incapable of booting directly from the SD card.
I downloaded and installed the lastest iso, wrote to a usb, then installed to the SD card.
From what I've read, what I'd like to do is install Grub2 to the MBR of the hard drive, so the bios can boot the primary HD. Then under Grub 2 it would give me either the option to boot into windows 10 on the drive or Ubuntu off the SD card.
I thought I should seek help before I wrecked the boot loader and lost my windows 10 install, which I can't do without.
So I assume the instructions will go something like, boot off the usb drive again. Set up Grub, edit grub.cfg, update grub and go from there.
I just need some help with that config so I don't blow anything up.
Thanks!!!
