I have just done a fresh install of Windows 10 and Ubuntu 18.04 LTS in dual boot on a Intel NUC8i7BEH which I equipped with 16Gb DDR4 RAM and a 500Gb NVM SSD.
The good news is, everything works fine.
It works fine unless... I make a change in the config of either Win10 or Ubuntu 18.04.
Whether that change is big or minor makes no difference.
Here is what happens.
Say I modify the sleep time in Win10, or I map a NAS on Win10, or on Ubuntu, or I install a new piece of software, what happens is that after I switch off my NUC, when I switch it back on, it subsequently directly boots into the OS which I last modified without offering a boot choice.
In other words, if I modify or add something in Win10, the next boot takes me directly in Win10.
Then if I switch it off without modifying anything, when I switch it back on, it starts on the Win/Ubuntu boot choice.
If I modify or add something in Ubuntu, the next boot takes me directly in Ubuntu.
Then if I switch it off without modifying anything, when I switch it back on, it starts on the Win/Ubuntu boot choice.
I can't find any reasons why this should be happening.
What do you think?
