Problem in Dual booting

[Shivaramprasad]

I am trying to dual boot my system with Ubuntu 18 , I have followed all the instructions given in Ubuntu page successfully but after the completion of Ubuntu installation and restarting the computer ,the system is not booting into Ubuntu,and when I go to UEFI and checked what are the OS installed in my laptop it's only showing windows OS but not Ubuntu,So I gave my laptop to some HP service centre technician he also tried a lot but he is also facing the same issue,he is telling that we should do BIOS update then it might work.Can anyone please help me ..

I'm sorry, but we here are not equipped to provide detailed Linux support.

HP only warranties their PCs for usage with the OS that comes preinstalled. IF you replace that with Linux, or add a Linux OS, then you assume full responsibility for maintaining that -- as HP provides Linux assistance only on Redhat and then only to commercial customers.

The primary "challenge" to using Linux on any HP PC is the availability of Linux drivers. Any hardware that does not work will then range from simple (if there are Linux drivers available) to impossible (if there are NO Linux drivers available) to fix.

Since HP does not provide Linux drivers, your best bet for Linux support is to contact the support forum for the Linux distro you are using -- -- in this case, the Ubuntu Forums: http://ubuntuforums.org/

Folks on Linux support forums have experience using a variety of machines with Linux and know a lot about driver and installation issues. You will be able to get sound and detailed help there.

Good Luck
