How do I Install Ubuntu 14.10 on efi HP110-225e​a machine?

I am installing 14.10 64 bit on to an entry level, mATX, new HP 110-225ea Desktop PC. It has an AMI bios version 1.8.0.0 and the machine was preloaded with Windows 8.1. I have reformatted the drive to eradicate Windows. The 1 TB hard drive that I installed to is the first drive in the BIOS Boot Order. (The only other drive is an optical dvd player)
I get this error.
"Error: No boot disk has been detected or the disk has failed."
Upon re start I can get into a setup menu with esc.
From there I can do this:-
Run UEFI application
Hard drive id appears - only one entry as expected
Enter
EFI appears - only one entry as expected
Enter
Two choices appear <..> or <ubuntu>. If <..> is selected there are no choices. If <ubuntu> is selected there are 3 choices, MokManager.efi, grubx64.efi and shimx64.efi
I can start Ubuntu by selecting grubx64.efi. I can run sudo update-grub ok. When I reboot I get the same error message "Error: No boot disk has been detected or the disk has failed."
What do I need to do to get Ubuntu to auto boot?

  • How do I install Ubuntu on Mac?

    I was wondering about Ubuntu and learning more about it.
    I used Boot Camp once to install Windows 7 Ultimate, but I wasn't satisfied with Windows 7, so I removed it. I thought Windows 7 was really boring and I missed many of the games included with XP that were excluded.
    So how do you install Ubuntu on a Mac?
    I've heard of using virtual software to install Ubuntu, but is it possible to install Ubuntu via Boot Camp?
    Here's my system info:
    15.4-inch MacBook Pro 2.8 GHz (Mid-2009)
    Mac OS X v10.6.7 Snow Leopard
    Let me know what I need to get started

    Hi,
    the Ubuntu community has a very good place to start here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook
    Nonetheless I would propose to start with the free VirtualBox as install/use Ubuntu in a Virtual Machine.
    If you don't like it it is easier to remove...

  • How do I install Ubuntu on a Toshiba Satellite L670D-102

    Hello
    I have been trying to load Ubuntu 10.10 (tried both AMD64 and i386 versions of Desktop Edition) onto a Satellite L670D-102 using a Live CD. The CD spins for a while, there is some activity on the hard drive and then I get a flashing white cursor (a hyphen) on a black screen. I left it all night and it remained the same. I tried with a 'live' usb and again, no boot. The cds and usb work in other machines running both amd and intel cpus.
    The sort of questions that spring to mind are:-
    Is there some security or other setting within the cmos that prevents anything other than Windows being loaded?
    Are Toshiba simply anti- Linux and I need a new machine?
    Do I need a special bios to run Ubuntu?
    Any help in resolving the issue would be welcome.

    Hi
    I use a Toshiba Satellite L655. It came with a Win7. The first thing I did after buying it was to wipe out Win7 and install ubuntu 10.10 on the entire hard disk (not a dual boot or Wubi install). Now I want to try out ubuntu 11.04 beta from a live usb and I am trying to change the boot order. The laptop doesn't boot from the usb drive. I am unable to enter the BIOS. I have tried pressing ESC, F2 etc while switching on the laptop. So far, I have not been able to access the BIOS setup.
    I have tried googling and I read about Toshiba's "legacy-free" laptops. But am not sure if mine is such a one. Now, I don't have Win at all in my laptop. I have only ubuntu 10.10. I need to access the BIOS setup and change the boot order so that my laptop boots from the USB drive. How do I do this?
    Any guidance would be welcome.

  • How do I install Ubuntu server on a mac osx.

    Ubuntu 10.04 sever (getting a mac in a few months)
    I want it to work under the ext4 file system.

    You can test it out in a VM (free, VirtualBox) and OS X has had boot support for Ext2/3 in there. You could run Ubuntu on its own hard drive.
    Don't know Ubuntu server, tried the client, and played around with SuSE 10.
    Mac Pro is... just your basic EFI based workstation using Intel Xeon 5500/3500s

  • How can i Install Liquid data 1.0 on Solaris 10(x86) Machine

    Hi,
    I have installed Weblogic 8.1 SP2 on a Solaris 10 x86 Intel Architecture platform. Now I am trying to have BEA Liquid Data for WebLogic 8.1 SP2 also installed on this machine. I couldnot find Liquid Data for WebLogic 8.1 SP2 for Solaris 10, although there seems to be one available for Sun Solaris (8,9,32 bit).
    Q1) I understand these are for SPARC and not x86 IA platform is that correct?
    When i try to use this above file version to install on Solaris 10 i get the following error.
    ./liquiddata812_solaris1.bin
    Preparing to install...
    Extracting the JRE from the installer archive...
    Unpacking the JRE...
    Extracting the installation resources from the installer archive...

    Launching installer...
    ./liquiddata812_solaris1.bin: /tmp/install.dir.1379/Solaris/resource/jre/bin/java: cannot execute
    Q2) Is there a BEA Liquid Data for WebLogic 8.1 SP2 available that can be installed on Solaris (9 or 10) x86 IA.
    Thanks
    Sandesh

    It is not supported on Solaris running on Intel.
    btw - AquaLogic DSP (aka LD8.5) is the current version. It is not supported on Solaris running on Intel, either.

  • How do we Install Forms 6i and Server 8i on the same machine (PC)

    Well i am Trying to Install Forms6i and Oracle 8i Server on the same PC and not succeeding. Can anyone help.

    Follow below steps
    1. Remove all Oracle versions in your machine. In NT, To Delete Oracle, delete HKEYLocalMachine/software/oracle , HKEYLocalMachine/software/services/oracle* registry keys, restart m/c and delete all oracle home directories.
    2. Install Forms 6i Server in the default home directory. If you want to develop forms in same m/c, use custom installation and select forms server, forms developer and webdb listner ( if needed ).
    3. Install Oracle 8i in a different oracle home.
    4. configure oracle forms server and webdb listner. ( See Note:107596.7 in matalink)

  • [Ubuntu] Can't install Ubuntu on my MacBook Air.

    I want to install Ubuntu on my MacBook Air. Problem : each time the DVD-RW burning ends, the disc becomes unreadable. How can I install Ubuntu 12.04 64 bits on a MacBook Air late 2011 still with OS X Lion ?
    Hi there.
    I have a MacBook Air late 2011 still working with OS X Lion (actually OS X 10.7.4).
    I just wanted to install Ubuntu 12.04 64 bits on my MacBook Air but I can't and I don't know why. The problem I encounter is the following : each time the DVD-RW burning ends, the disc becomes unreadable by the system and I can't do anything but erase it and try to burn it again… This is the fourth time I did it and it still doesn't works. Impossible to burn the DVD-RW without making it unreadable by the system. And I checked Bootcamp Assistant options but there's nothing about Linux…
    I use an original Apple's superdrive to burn the disc.
    A friend just told me to use Bootcamp Assistant, install Windows 7 on a new partition, then replace Windows 7 with Ubuntu… But I don't really know what to do. This is the first time that I try to install another system…
    Could anyone help me ? Thanks.

    I finally did it. In fact, if the DVD wasn't readable by OS X after the burning, he was readable by rEFIt on the superdrive. Me (OS X Lion 4 on a MacBook Air late 2011) and a friend (OS X Mountain Lion 1 on a MacBook Pro of 2008) did it this way :
    1. Download the Ubuntu iso named "ubuntu-12.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso".
    2. Burn it on a blank DVD with the disk utility.
    3. Make a partition for Ubuntu with the disk utility.
    4. Install rEFIt.
    5. Restart the Mac.
    6. Select the icon of Tux behind a little disc.
    7. Try Ubuntu from the disc.
    8. While trying Ubuntu on the disc, use the installer to install Ubuntu. NOTE: NE CAREFUL WHILE INSTALLING UBUNTU, IF YOU CHOOSE THE WRONG OPTION AT A MOMENT OF THE INSTALLATION YOU CAN ERASE OS X.
    9. After the installation, Ubuntu should tell you that you might restart the computer. Restart the Mac, and you'll arrive on the rEFIt menu.
    10. You can now use Ubuntu on your Mac, enjoy.
    We both did it and it worked well, I even reinstalled Ubuntu and it worked well again. Just be careful while installing Ubunut, I'll maybe repeat myself but choosing the wrong option could suppress OS X. Except if you just want a MacBook Air with Ubuntu for the weight… Have a nice day.

  • How do I install driver age364xa so anyone can access it?

    If I install the driver as administrator, only a person with administrator rights can run a program which uses the driver. If I install the driver using a certain login name, only that person can run a program which uses the driver. How do I install the driver so that anyone logged into the machine can run a program which uses the driver?

    Hi Drew1005
    It sounds like you have a security issue there. The agilent instrument driver that you are using requires access to some files that are restricted to Administrators on that machine. What you need to do is to give everyone full access to the instruments' driver directory. For example, if you are using LabVIEW, this will be in /labview/instr.lib. You will have to right click on the directory if you are in the Windows environment, choose properties and in the security tab, give Every One full access to the directory.
    Let me know if you nee more help.

  • How do I install the Style Panel plug-in

    I recently installed InDesign using the Adobe Application Manager.
    Whenever it starts up it pops up a box saying: Cannot load ObjectstylesUI.InDesignPlugin because it requires Style Panel. Please install the Style Panel plug-in and restart InDesign.
    Where do I find the Style Panel plug-in? How do I install it?

    I tried the reboot thing - the machine ran like an extremely sick dog and I couldn't do anything...
    I've had to abandon the search for a solution today. I reinstalled it so I've got something to work with this week. I'll just keep working without the Styles and try again next weekend.
    Thanks for you help.
