UEFI vs. Linux
Hey guys,
I'm quite knew to the world of Linux and want to start using it along side windows, but unfortunattely UEFI is thwarting my plans. I will spare you with all the details of my history of suffering, but I can say that I spent around a day of my life with trying to fix the issue and did not success. I've been looking through many posts and threads on numerous websites, but none of these could fix the probleme and I haven't found a thread by someone sharing the exact problem I have. Sooo.. here's the issue:
Whenver I try to install a Linux distribution(doesn't matter which beause they all don't work: ubuntu, fedora, suse, mint, elemnatary, gparted, partedmagic) my hard drive is not to be detected. It won't appear in the 'choosing directory dialogue' at the very beginning of the installation, neither can I find it using the terminal. I tried numerous commands I found from 'fdisk' over 'gdisk' to I don't know...
Even after intensive research I have no clue how to fix this problem and I'm gonna do everything you guys think I should. All I know is that this is a conflictt between UEFI and Linux. Unfortunately there is no error message I could give you. I wasn't sure which information will be required, so just request the information you need.
